Five of my files are infected with Trojan Horse - what do I do???

Question

This has happened before. What is Trojan Horse? And why does it constantly get into my computer system?
I can't find those five temps. Those files are now quarantined. What happens when they're quarantined? Is my computer safe now?? What does this all mean?!?

Answer 1

A trojan horse is basically a virus type thing that sneaks in by piggyback with another file.

If trojans are constantly getting into your pc then you need better software & anti-virus to stop it (I've listed the best free ones below).

If your anti-virus or malware program quarantined the trojans then they are basically disabled and cannot work so if your pc works fine after a day or two you can use the program to delete them safely.

Answer 2

If an antivirus sais your files are quarantined, this means that they are moved into a specific location and the access to them is denied. So, as long as you or anyone else can't access and run those files, they can't harm your computer. If your computer works fine that way, you can remove the quarantined items. The only purpose antiviruses quarantine items is to have the possibility to recover them in case the computer doesn't work well without those files and/or there was a "false positive" (the software detected a virus, but in fact, there wasn't any virus in that file).
