Trojan Horse
 
On the weekend i got a Toran Horse Genetic WXY now after hours afer hours finding programs and a way to get rid of it i found a little porgram called Prevx1 it was free and easy to use so i used that and it seemed to work and all the things what popped up when i had the trojan horse didn't seem to appear like when i went on internet a warning came on a page Saying my computer if inflected and maybe vunrable to hackers but but i still get the system 32 folder pop up everytime u launch my computer can i get rid of this or does it mean i still have the Trojan and also on the Prevx1 program all the files what are dangerous are in it's 'Jail' but i want to uninstall prevx1 and can i do this without getting to trojan come back again?

did u try avg antivirus? if u have and it didnt do any good, then my suggestion is that you format. not the best thing to do but for sure the easiest.

just my 2 cents.

Format your hard drive. It means starting clean with a new installation. You'll lose all of your files on your hard drive.

its usually best taht way, cuz then u kno that its all clean and some of the stuff that u might backup wont be infected, i mean if u have to back stuff up try and put it ina winzip format and put it on a CD so u can scan it when u need it back

TBH, get a paid-for (or a very good free) antivirus. Without one, you're very vunerable.
