trojan horse and vbs.exe

Hi,

I just got rid of a lot of crap from my computer with computercops help.
Now, my Norton antivirus just told me that it found a virus, vbs.exe, and a Trojan horse that it cannot get rid of (of any of them).
I ran the Computer Cops Trojan TCP Port Scanner, but it said I don't have any Trojan horses.

What do I do?

Thank you very Much.

Barreda

Hi Barreda,
It's not because Norton says it's a trojan that it is actualy one.A lot of AV vendors(and not only Symantec) call trojan what is not a virus including spyware, malware etc.
IMHO you should post your HJT log at the worm related hijacked forum
and an expert here will look after wat's realy in your PC and give you instructions to get rid of this.

If you want to be protected against actual trojans you need a dedicated software like Trojan Hunter
