How do you remove Trojan Virus? My McAfee program can't seemto get rid of it.

I keep getting re-directed when I used search engines. I think I have trojan virus. Is that what the trojan virus does? Screws up searches on google and yahoo? I ran McAfee several times, and each time it detected and removed NTOSKRNL-HOOK (Trojan). And, my searches on google and yahoo are back to normal again. But, few days later, I start getting redirected to funny sites when I do searches again. So, I re-run the McAfee scan and it says it detected and removed the Trojan hook again. How can I get rid of it permanently? Is the SPYHUNTER download software on this site worth it and effective? : http://www.wiki-security.com/wiki/ov...egory/Trojans/ Thanks in advance. I imagine virus can be different but one got past my McAfee and when I restored computer to previous date but McAfee would not work and I had to remove it. Rather than reinstall I thought I'd try free Avast http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html and it found and removed the Trojan virus. Been about 6 trouble free weeks now. The virus had reverted my computer to about the day I had bought it and none of my files were there including new programs I had installed. It was frightening but fortunately Vista restored to a previous date and all was OK. McAfee is free from Comcast isp but for me has always been a PITA as a resource hog. |
