Win32:Trojano-874 [Trj]

system · February 14, 2005, 9:46am

Every time I open a new web page/go on-line I get dozens of warnings that my computer is infected with this virus.

I select delete.

It deletes it.

3 seconds later, another warning, I delete it (or move to chest), then another warning, I delete, 20 warnings for every web page I open ???

How do I get rid/fix this problem.

Thanks.

Hmm… I seem to be having the same problem as this guy:

EDITED TO ADD: I don’t know anything about computers, so imagine you are giving instructions to a 5 year old…

Fetch an adult only joking.

Clear your browser cache (temporary Internet files).
What is your Operating System (win98, XP), etc. ?
Have you not been able to follow the instructions given in the link you posted? If necessary print off what you need and follow it step by step, especially Eddy’s site instructions.

If you are continually being hit, it may be due to a windows vulnerability, ensure your OS id fully up to date (visit windows update).
