The best thing is to delete the trojan on your own. I had to do this once, when I tried to install Norton and it shut down. I looked at Task manager into processes and found my trojan. Then I searched for it using windows search and deleted it manualy. Truthfuly, I had luck. Lots of luck!
After all you can stil do the old trick -> format c:
If you know the location and the file name(s) of the file in question, start your computer in SAFE MODE. Then physically delete the file(s) and rerun your NAV once again. After the complete satisfaction that your computer is free from any anomalies, restart your computer to the NORMAL MODE.
Good luck.

How would one go about starting their computer in Safe Mode? And how does Safe Mode differ from when the computer is running normally?
Try putting the virus/trojan/whatevers name into Google, allot of times that will bring up removals for it.
Oh, and to start your computer in Safe Mode, restart your computer, and..uh..well it depends on what ver you have, you have to hit F8(I think) on the right screen, I can't exactly say which one, so just keep hitting F8 on each screen or..idk.

Well not really surprise that hackers are targeting this game after scoring $310 million
dollars in the first day, and what gets me is that people were downloading the pc version days
before it came out, So either complete stupidity on the fact people though it came out early or the
fact they didn't know that these games would loaded with malware goodies. Nonetheless, I think
its time gaming companies start taking cheat codes out of games and write protect files and that way
they can't be over written. SOURCE ....
Hi Guys, Lately I have had this same annoying pop-up dialog box pop up that says: QUOTE NOTICE:
If your computer has been running slower than normal, it may be infected with Viruses, Adware, or
Spyware. Adwareremover2007 will perform a quick and completely FREE scan of your system for
malicious programs. Download AdwareRemover2007 for FREE now! I have scanned it with Avira
AntiVirus and ad-aware2007. They both returned infected files, which i deleted, but i still have the
pop-ups. Any ideas?....
Well it seems Trojans and root kits are making a deadly combination this especially with a technique
thats pretty darn old. QUOTE The malware, called Trojan.Mebroot by Symantec, installs itself on
the first part of the computer's hard drive to be read on startup, then makes changes to the
Windows kernel, making it hard for security software to detect it. Well at least I understand
how or where root kits become effective a bit more, but really you think if everyone is aware of it
they would have found a way to patch that hole. I guess not since 5000 computer....
I just recently redid me computer and installed a new OS and i went to install AIM ( I HATE AIM BUT
I KNOW A LOT OF PEOPLE THAT USE IT ) I installed it as normal and my anti-virus went off showing {
win32.tibz.ez } trojan theres no way i could have got a virus that fast. I installed my OS and
updated and then installed and update my zonealarm suite. Then i when to install AIM and my
anti-virus went off and the AIM installer got a error "installation of a component has failed (error
code: IS-2008 ). But the funny thing is after I get the error I can still use AIM and it ....
Seems, there is a variant of backdoor.Sdbot family of worms and IRC backdoor Trojans that is
disguised as Microsoft Security Adviser. This is quite nasty because it infects system files and is
very difficult to remove. Trend Micro has a nice online tool called House Call but this trojan
survived that so you have to look elsewhere to remove it. No telling what the triggers are but I
simply removed the files and the registry keys pointing to them and now I can't even get into my
BIOS. Search for msscan.exe if you have it then find RegRun on the net and they claim it r....
This post is the continuation of my previous post DNS Hijack SearchAtHand.com Browser Result
Removal but deserves its own topic. This trojan, not new but something that's been going
around the web for few years, seems to be quite strong and hard to get rid of. The reason is that it
randomly changes its full file name when a weak anti-spyware attempts to remove it improperly. I
have been using Spybot Search & Destroy and Norton Anti-Virus Corporate Edition for many years and
have never seen such a resilient torjan. Recently I have tried AVG Anti-Spyware but it too....

I have AVG anti-virus on my PC, and a few weeks back it found a trojan virus on my pc. It put it
into the virus vault but could not heal it. How do I completly remove a trojan virus? Or even can
I? Do I have to download specific software to remove it, or is there some more complexe way of
going in to the system?....
It is so retarded how people will send files with trojans attached, lucky for me, my antivirus is a
king at detecting. But anyways, like 40% of averything i download has a trojan or keylogger, i mean
come on. Why do you have to steal peoples accounts and know info about people, why cant they get
there own lives? Just a warning, use caution, people attach trojans to alot of things. Get a good
antivirus if you like to go on downloading sprees like me =P. I was looking one up online and it
showed that you can look at the saved internet exploror passwords too. My Norton prot....
On this topic: http://www.trap17.com/forums/Help-Running-...mize-t8569.html I was told that I
have a Trojan. I downloaded a program called ScanSpyware and am scanning for Trojans. Is this a
good program for me to keep, or is there something better?....
