Hey, I was infected with backdoor.trojan, but only in one file.I deleted it and things are starting to run better, except that I think there are still cahnges made to the system that i don't know about. When I go to any major anti-virus site like, McAfee, Symantec, etc. it opens an html file on my computer. How would I know if made a change to a file or not and how to fix it.
