Karma I'm posting this here because it'll be noticed quicker, I think.

I've been wondering if my new Nortons was working and apparently it is because I just got the message that there's a Trojan Horse and the IP #.

Now what? Sheesh....it says that I don't have to do anything but where the heck did it come from and all those usual questions???

Guidance. I could use a teensy bit o' guidance if you please. :)

Actually, a Trojan can allow the hacker to take control of your machine or information contained there.

Which Trojan? There are removal tools at the Simantec website that will remove them.

You're not alone...
