I have Norton 360 and it says it has detected a Trojan Horse on my computer and it can't automatically fix it. So, I had to use tech support and they wanted to charge me $100 to fucking get rid of it. So I said fuck that.

What else can I do to get rid of it? I'm downloading Ad Aware (free version) right now. Anything else?

try Windows Defender... less of a hassle.

Get either AVG or Avast.  Or since you know the filename you can try things the old fashioned way by finding and deleting.

Lol, I forgot I had that. So I've got Spybot Search and Destroy as well as Ad Aware 2007 on it.
