Can't detect Trojan virus's?
« on: Jun 19th, 2008, 7:04am »		 Quote Quote  Modify Modify
Hello All,
I am a bit confused and was wondering if someone could give me some advice please. I have Trojan Hunter 5 on my computer and also Spyware Doctor. The funny thing is that Spyware Doctor is detecting 6 x Trojan.cws (virus's) and Trojan Hunter 5 is not detecting these 6 x Trojan.cws on my computer? I thought it would be the other way round. Am a bit dissapointed as i can delete the Trojan.cws virus's using Spyware Doctor but they are re-appearing. Would love to know how Trojan Hunter 5 can detect these virus's so i can delete them for good. Also, why is Trojan Hunter 5 not picking up these virus's?, i thought buying this product would eliminate this? Any help would be most grateful and thank you in advance.

Welcome to the forum jamboo,  
 
What you may be experiencing is that Spyware Doctor is seeing the infection and locking the files so that TrojanHunter cannot detect them.  Please try this.
 
1.  Be sure your TrojanHunter detection rulesets are up-to-date with the latest rulesets issues this morning.  
 
- Run LiveUpdate if you have a licensed version of TrojanHunter.  
 
- If you are running the trial version of TrojanHunter, you will need to update the rulesets manually.  The link below provides the latest manual downloads and instructions.

2.  Then reboot your computer into SAFE MODE.  
 
3.  Run a FULL SCAN of your system with TrojanHunter.  Let it quarantine what it detects as infections.
 
4.  Reboot back into Normal Mode.
 
5.  Download/install Hijackthis per the instructions in the link below:

6.  Run a scan with Hijackthis and post the scan log back here.
 
7.  If TrojanHunter detected any infections, post the TH scan report back here.  It will be in folder Scan Reports at C:\Program Files\TrojanHunter 5.0\Scan Reports
