I am wondering, how can I tell if my PC has a trojan horse programs, I know of Anti-trojan scanners, but, I already trialed Trojan Hunter, and TDS3 (Won't let me use them again) And now, I want to make sure my PC is clean, I use Sysinternals Process Explorer, I did not find any suspicious EXE files, I half-way checked through the loaded DLL's, I also have scanned with Tauscan, and Pest Patrol, found nothing, and scanned with AVG Antivirus, F-prot for DOS, Spybot S&D, Adaware, Bazooka Adaware and spyware scanner, found nothing as well, I have done a netstat there are no suspicious connections (Like lastnight, when I posted about being possibly hacked).

Hello, probably your comp is all clean. Are you experiencing any unusual performance changes, or difficulties?

HOW TO FIND, ELIMINATE, AND FIX TROJANS:

step 1:

look under rocks, in crevices, and in tall grass. call quietly with the trojan mating call.

step 2:
when trojan is found, hit over head with heavy stick or stab with sharp pointy object.

step 3:
cook over medium heat until tender and sauce thickens.

You have ran many scans...MANY SCANS.

First rule of tech:

IF IT AIN'T BROKE DON'T FIX IT

If your system is behaving normally, and your array of scans found nothing, then you just might be okay.

okay?

A firewall will let you know if
something wants out.
