Hello... I keep getting a message saying I have a trojan virus, and I have run all sorts of programs to get rid of it, but nothing works. I ran HijackThis, and it gave me a log file I don't understand. Would someone be able to help me figure out what to remove if I provide the log? Email me or reply to this message please. Thanks.
Just to let you know that there are sites that have more log reading people then here.

andriapaige, be aware that a trojan and a virus are very similar, but they're different. Many AV programs can identify trojans they can't clean, HJT may fall into that category,dunno. Another thing to try is an online trojan scan (along with crossed fingers). Scan at : http://www.trojanscan.com/trojanscan HTH. Ed in Texas.
