    When I went on my computer a couple of days ago I had a virus called the trojan horse,
    When I downloaded some files it said Trojan Horse I thought it was nothing.
    But now its saying that codes from computers around the world I could use if it sent me some codes!
    How do I get rid of this virus!
    Please Help!
     
    Never ignore a trojan horse, never!

    Download the following:

    AVG Free
    Malwarebytes

    Install and update then scan with both. After you're finished installing and updating make sure to unplug your internet connection.

    If you cant install them, I say trash the operating system and reinstall it. 3 :
     
    Malwarebytes, yes, but I wouldn't recommend AVG. I've seen more computers come into the shop with AVG, Trend Micro, and McAfee and have been infected. My suggestion would be avast!, as I've been using it successfuly for the past two years. It's free, so no worries there. When avast! installs, it will ask if you want to run a boot time scan, which you'll want to select yes, as any trojans that will be running on your computer will be unscannable when you log into Windows (they make thereselves hidden to everything when Windows is running, so the boot time scan will keep them from starting up).

    I also agree with scrapping your current OS install if you can't get rid of whatever is on your computer. BUT make sure you back up any data you want to save first, as I would suggest a complete reformat of the hard drive. Once you've done that, then install and update avast! and scan the data you've backed up to make sure nothing there got infected.
     
    If you cant get rid of the Trojans your best option would be to back up your system and reformat your hardrive
     
    dont worry!
    It's sorted now all I did was delete all my computer so now I have a wiped clean PC.
    So can a mod close this please?
