that means you are doing something with loads of trojans in that could be a file sharing program, they are full of trojans or it could be your main CPU is infefected and the virus scan will delete it, but it will com straight back so do a complete virus scan

You will also want to remove it from any quarentine folder. If the quarentine directory gets scanned, it will find the virus again and again.  :blink:

wtf are you taking about CPU means CENTRAL PROCESING UNIT it cant get infected. and ohh use panda it takes the least system resources, and has a built in fw.

now for your problem start the pc in safe mode and scan the disc :p

sounds like ur basic run-o-the-mill trojan to me... if you want to prevent it to send stuff back to the main server, use something like zonealarm, its a great free firewall.
once you get it too stop sending back to the instruction server, then you can use an antivirus.

this may work but personally I use a mac (the totally virus-free, most secure os) so if it doesn't I'm sorry.

ZoneAlarm-www.zonelabs.com

hope it helps,

but hohoman if the trojan has been written by a better proggrammer it would stop the software fw. I recomend you goto safemode without network connection.

that is what I did when I got this nasty criter

I got it here too ;) . When I scanned my computer for viruses/trojans, it picked it up but couldn't delete it. If you really care that much (which I don't :D ), you can schedule the program to work at startup, and that MIGHT work.

I used the panda online active scan and got it off my computer. I use the zonealarm firewall as well and it is the best I've used  ;)

roflmfao the most secure os my ass it is a little more secure than windows only because a good programmer wanting to mass infect computers wont make his virus for the mac because not a whole lot of ppl use it *Still rofl* and to be honest with you linux/unix is the most secure os it is virtually I'mpossible to hack...

if you dont configure your linux right it can be as vunerable as windoze

Ok dude.....First you shud get Norton AV Pro 2004, and ZoneAlarm......then after that scan your HDD, if it comes up with viruses or trojans double click the virus name and it will take you to Symantec site detailing how to remove the virus.......If you need "links" to Norton or Zonealarm contact me on MSN.  And about virii only being able to get ur HDD, seriously badass ones can get ur RAM and you have to get it cleaned, which is very expensive.  Contact me if you have any problems.      [email protected]
