I just had a blocked attack message from my firewall.an attempt by a doly Trojan,never heard of this before.?

Question

Any one know what it is please.

Answer 1

It is a remote control program. When a computer gets infected with the trojan, it will begin randomly trying to connect to other IP address and spread itself. This time it randomly picked your address. Because your firewall was correctly configured, it blocked the trojan's attempt to access your computer. So the firewall worked exactly the way it is suppose to work.

If you are still concerned, you can run a full virus scan and a spyware scan on your PC to make sure it is clean. But from the information you reported, it looks like everything worked right and you were protected from the attack.

Answer 3

Doly Trojanis one type of trojan but when if that enters your system first that enters in c:\Windows-->system+System32 and that will delete all your .dll files and driver files, if your PC is connected to N/W then that will couse other PCs also

Answer 4

hi, perhaps you can try norton to remove the virus and protect your PC, but you need to pay for the software.

i 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.
