WinNuke.Trojan is an older Trojan do you have any rules that protect against older trojans.  I mean what if it was renamed, would most Virus Checker's still find it?

There's a program called WinNuke which could be used a couple of years back to knock Windows 95 machines off the Internet. For some reason, some virus scanners detect this as a "trojan", when in fact it is not (it can be used to deny service to other Internet connected computers, but it's not a trojan). If you have something that your virus scanner flags as a trojan, you can always send it to submit@trojanhunter.com and I'll be happy to take a look at it.

No it was a problem a few years ago, but thanks for answering my question about it.  One thing because they mismarked it I became interested in trojans and then when I later ran into one that TH2.0 Demo saved me from, I became interested in purchasing your product.
