It can remotely clean up your computer. And after you do this, download it to keep the virii from coming back. It's better than nothing. An antivirus program you pay for (or pirate) is better even still. I use McAfee, my boyfriend, uses Panda, and we're both virus free.

first is you must install an anti virus software update it and do an overall scan.next thing to do is update your operating system (if it is Windows do a windows update.) I also suggest housecall.trendmicro.com it scan your computer online. also take note of the name of the trojan and search a removal procedure for you to follow on the internet.

How can you expect anyone to help you, if you don't have the name of the Trojan virus you have. Do a virus scan and then get the name of the Trojan virus you have and then update your question.

Scan again and remove in safe mode.
In general, Windows does not allow the deletion of files when they are in use. However, Safe Mode will only load a minimum amount of drivers and services to run Windows, making removal a better bet. Scan again and attempt to delete while your computer is in safe mode.
To access Safe Mode, reboot then repeatedly press the F8 key at the first screen. When finished removing that pesky pest, reboot again to return to normal mode.

Download a spy remover. Nowadays spy removers remove Trojan from computer. I suggest x clean micro for quick job.

If antivirus and spyware remover software does not work, you can try to restore the computer to an older working configuration. Detailed instructions are posted at http://fixit.in/systemrestore.html

What is the name of the trojan? Search google for it also search symantec, Sometimes symantec has a downloadable fix/remover for it.
