Re: Possible Trojan?

["Chuck Lewis" <chuck.lewis@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Two good  ones for sure Jim. Two others are Spybot Search and Destroyand Spyblaster.. Downloads.com is another good/safe site. Forget or be VERY careful of what Google finds because there is all KINDS of crap out there trying to trick you. I've used 3 of the 4 and we mentioned for years added Malwarebytes last year.

go to www.cnet.com (a safe place to download)
downloads>windows and search malwarebytes
it's free and pretty good/ and quick
it's good at finding bad stuff.
Also, Spybot S&D is good.
Always be careful where you download from, some fake sites
will give you a trojan in the download.
And nothing labelled "AntiVirus 2008" or "AntiVirus 2009" is real...
