I tried to delete it but all it would do is quarantine. I was wondering why that activity light kept on going on and on and never stopping. I had so much on the pc it took all night to do a scan, found trojan about 5 this morning and ran for 12 hours or more I think. It should a long list for Trojans, don't know if it was only one or not. I must have had it for some time. I had so much on the hd that it just took to long to scan. |

I found where all those trojans were hiding, in all those free ebooks I got on-line years ago. There was 14 in all. I don't know if they infected my whole pc, but in any case I am not sorry I reformatted. |

Me either! You have been having a lot of trouble with that PC for a long time now. I bet it's like having a new computer now.

I wonder if those were really trojans in those ebooks and what that is all about...? I know firstpage gives false positives to anti virus scans. |
