New Trojan

There is another bogus, AV Software floating about the Internet called Antivirus 2009; I unfortunately got caught by it the other day. This virus that got me had an HP log on it; I had just got done updating my computer, so I was of course click happy. It turned out to be a Trojan, and it kept installing all kinds of junk on my system. It took some work, but I got part of the problem fixed using AVG, then had to use two other software products to clean up the rest.

I have all kinds of software on my PC for problems like this, because I have been testing to see which ones work the best. However, this is the first time I have ever had to use three products to take care of one bothersome Trojan. PCWorld .com has descent instructio on how to remove this particular virus problem.
