Antivirus firm: Google text ad Trojan detected

Yeah...: It's getting hard to just do a simple research anymore without fear of latching onto something nasty. I honestly feel that the AV companies can't keep up. Afterall, some of these virii are said to be detected by some, but not by others. Most PCs only only one AV program to run, unless you want more problems that it is worth. I think my wife's PC was infected by these google ads... She's got a trojan.win32.obfuscated or something I can not get rid of... All those glorious malware and trojan removers are worthless when there is one present. One of them claim to remove, only to reboot and find it whenever she opens a browser. Time to back up email and such and ghost it back. Thanks google.com... I hate that company! A glorified M$ in a sheep skin!; Posted by: DarbyOhara Posted on: 12/19/07 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
