well i have this a lil problem, i love mirc, and that is one of the thing that i have to use to chat with my friend, but the dalnet server keeps killing me saying that i had a trojan virus, what should i do to prevent the virus? and where the hell it comes from anyway? i have to wait for a day or two and sometimes a week to get my ip host out the kill list
please help me and thanks for the time

You could have got the trojan from a number of sources. (email, mIRC, P2P etc...)
Go here and run an online scan and post the results:
Also Download 'Hijack This!'. Unzip, doubleclick HijackThis.exe, and hit "Scan".
When the scan is finished, click "Save Log", and copy and paste it in a reply. If you have a trojan, it will show in the HT log and we'll let you know what to have HT fix.

Do an online Virus Scan at HouseCall_AV to check for Virus and some more common Trojans. Then install a good Virus Scan program.
Get AD-Aware_v6 and/or SpyBot_S&D to search for and remove Spyware_AD-ware.
Go to GRC.com and run Shields UP tests. Read about security there and try to follow advice on closing your ports..
You have a lot to learn about basic system security, so take your time and read everything at every web site.
Go to PC Flank.com for online checks of Worms and Trojans. Find removal instructions and then consider getting a FireWall program to block them from getting in.

disable auto accept in option also, it saves a lot of hassle, ive banned ppl fro the max 2 weeks repeatedly cos they ignore message that they have a virus whether i`m opped or not, one person asked me whay i kept banning him over a year after i started banning him on sight.
with help he managed to get rid of the virus/trojan and hasn`t been banned sine
Woof
