Hello,

Does anyone know of a site that offers free trojan scans and and removals? I think I have a trojan. I did a free virus scan from a site and it said I had two trojans but it wouldn't fix/remove them without my ordering all it's fixing stuff.

Is this normal for trojans? I know viruses can be fixed/removed via the free scans. I've spent quite alot of time already trying to find such a site, but not being as computer savy as others, I've been wasting too much time coming up with nothing. So if anyone has been thru this and can help and direct me??? I'd appreciate it greatly!!!

Thanks SO much in advance!!
T.

You can also download this free trial http://www.misec.net/ Good for 30 days. You can double check what another site's free check shows. There are some unscrupulous people showing you false positives.
