ta for now laurie (grumpy cheer up new year mate)

First of all, your Trojan horses are probably hiding in Temp Files or System Restore, so have a read of the Cleaning Up and Speeding Up information at the top of this forum. Follow everything there and it may get your PC sorted again.

One problem which could be causing conflicts, is that you have 2 antivirus programs installed. Choose between AVG and Avast.

You are also only on Windows XP with no service packs. You need to get upgraded to Service Pack 2 ASAP from http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com.

o see if it is better Still gettin trogan threats which cannot find on pc any new ways of catching them all the best for your help so far it has definetly improved the running of the pc.

If yout tell me where these Trojans are being detected it will help greatly.

Also, as I have mentioned once, please upgrade to Service Pack 2 because without it, this could be the gap letting the Trojans in.
