Hi!
I have Windows 2000 and avast!. Why avast! allows to write and run trojans? I have ixplorer.exe (Troj/BeastDo-H) and SDKz0r.exe (W32/Sdbot-UN) in winnt\system32 directory and in my memory. I can remove them from memory by proces explorer and delete them from directory but they come back.

If Avast detects (and handle acordingly) or not depends on the settings you as user make.
If you setup Avast correctly, than Avast will detect and prevent trojans from running and even from comming them on your system.
To clean your system, click on the link in my signature and follow the instructions in the malware removal section

What I should change in my avas! (free edition) configuration to detect and prevent trojans from running and comming on my system?

I suggest you read the HELP. Learn what everything means/does and setup Avast as you like it.
After all it is your system and you only knows what you want.

I am a bit confused: is SDKz0r.exe a virus/trojan or not?
