Ok I've been getting this little **** since I came back,seems my nephew was surfing music sites and has picked up dozens of trojans the little ****.
Anyone here had this virus?,and more importantly how did you fix it.
AVG is not picking it up,and it has rendered my windows player inoperable.

Does it work for this Trojan HELEX?
I'm downloading it right now.........thanks ;)
If that's no good then there's some help here but it's a bit tech heavy for me, you may be able to make better sense of it than me.

Most Anti-Vir Programs work quite well, but a daily Update or at least one time a week is essential to ensure it.

try lavasoft adware 6.xxx
www.lavasoft.ru <-- Yes russian stuff but very good!!!
It is not antivir but it cleans all trojans trackers browser hijackers and other stuff like this... only problem can by if you have kazaa since it removes cydor spyware which is build in in kazaa ( if you have kazaa lite there in no problem since in lite verion cydor is ripped off)

Consider yourself fortunate, Argyll. My daughter messed around on my computer the other night, and now I can connect to the net, but I can't surf at all. She was downloading music (against my explicit instructions). I'm going to take my computer in and get it looked at.... lucky for her I can still use my laptop... otherwise I might have had to put her up for adoption!

If you don't have anti-virus software in your PC, use this free AV here.

to delete a trojan u cant use lavasoft,try the anti-virus programm.And since you use broadband argyll,do you have a firewall?i recommend that you have ure PC behind at least 2 over lapping firewalls to be safe
