You say you have a Trojan but don't give its name. This prevents giving good and accurate removal advice. Some Trojans can be removed with many programs, while other like SmitFrauds require specialized removal programs.
For general removal go here and Download ewido. It is the best Trojan remover available. Do not run yet.

Go here and follow this procedure to properly scan your computer. This procedure is very important for proper removal. Although the article discusses spyware removal, this procedure is used for all forms of Malware. Only the programs will be different.

it depends what it is....most computer savvy people use spybot and Adaware. The Antivirus program that some people use is AVG free....if you have a repeated trojan, you may need a specific program to remove it...i had a trojan called virtumonde. I did some research and found out i had to download a little program and follow some instructions to remove it. good luck to ya.

hi, spyware/trojan is a disgusting and infamous virus. perhaps you can try Norton to remove the virus. but you need to pay for the software.
i also recommand you to use firefox with Google toolbar. firefox can disable all virus to run, because the virus can only run on IE.
besides, firefox can block any any poppus and disable any virus and adware, spyware on webpage, so, firefox is much safer than IE. as you know, most of the virus is spread throught internet and webpage.
firefox is much smaller than IE, so i run faster than IE.
download firefox for free:

Best Wishes && Good Luck!
