Hi there I'm not sure if I should post this here but I;ll try. I think I have removed a trojan from my machine but it still acts up. Some programs freeze with the typical error report being generated to Microsoft. I'm running Kaspersky 2009, and It doesn't catch anything....ever. I have been running other scanners for Malware ect and nothing. A few days ago I did get a trojan when scanning with Super anti spyware, this is the following files it named;
TPEDN7W5.EXE.A_A
K4GU3573.EXE.A_A
DDCYATMM.DLL
03827B60-.TXT
CQFFEMRY.DLL......
I followed the instructions ect.
and I think they are gone but not sure.
Kaspersky hits on a Java Appl. as a detected threat. I completely removed JAva.
Also followed the advisory too fix a microsoft vulnerbility.

Can someone please request a Hijack log and tell if I'm still infected, and if so what I can do to fix this. I don't have a lot of experience doing this but learn quick for an old guy.
Thanks......

You need a Trojan Remover. This program is fully functional for 30 days. If you have a Trojan, it will find & remove it:

And get a decent AV program.

I have run the http://www.simplysup.com/tremover/d... and it didn't find anything.....
I couldn't open a link to the second suggestion but as stated above I did download and scan utilizing hijack this....
I have a saved log file from that but don't know how to decipher it.

What A/V program would you suggest?

Thx.

I use AVG the free version you can get here:

http://free.avg.com/download-avg-an...

I have used this for more than five years now because I don't like Norton or McAfee as the seem to be resourse hoggs and I do a lot of video editing.

At the same time though I do not browse objectional web sites. Actually have just a handful that I do browse often so I am not going to blow smoke up your butt and claim it is the best out there.

Practice makes perfect but only if you practice perfectly!
