It is VERY bad. a Trojan Horse is a form of virus that allows other viruses and programs to install themselves without your knowledge.
Those other programs can be viruses or spyware, or programs to allow someone to use your computer without your consent.
The following should help you get rid if it. When a virus checker asks to delete a file click OK.
The best Anti-virus is: AVG Anti-Virus Free Edition. (www.grisoft.com)
The Best Spyware defense is: SpyBot Search and Destroy (www.spybot.info)
AND: AdAware SE (www.lavasoft.com)
AND Spyware Blaster (www.spywareblaster.com)
The best Firewall besides the one that comes with Windows is: Zone Alarm (http://www.zonelabs.com/store/content/co... or just (www.zonelabs.com) and select the FREE version.
These are all FREE and are all that are required. There is no reason to pay for this kind of software, except to give a donation to the writers if you can.
ALL the above programs are recommended and should be run on a regular basis. With some the free versions they must be run manually.
The best way to avoid getting any Malware (virus, trojan's, spyware, etc) is to practice safe computing. Microsoft and many others have countless articles on the subject of safe computing. (something I think should be taught in schools)

Trojan horse is a class of viruses which appear to be harmless files with known extensions such as .doc, .zip etc. but contain a harmful payload that is hidden, typically an executable. The antivirus should also show you the name of the virus apart from the fact that it is a trojan horse.

The Trojan horse is when it goes through your task manager and destroys certain programs without you knowing. And yes it is bad because it is a virus.
