Trojan horses are a huge security threat. A Trojan is
a program that enters your computer undetected, giving the attacker
who planted the Trojan unrestricted access to the data stored on
your computer. Trojans can transmit credit card information and
other confidential data in the background. Trojans are often not
caught by virus scanning engines, because these are focused on
viruses, not Trojans. Catching such threats would require the use of
a Trojan scanner (a.k.a Trojan cleaner, Trojan remover,
anti-Trojan).
Note: Once you click the "Scan my computer for Trojans!" button, a
dialog box will appear asking you if you would like to download and
install TrojanScan. Click "Yes" to run this test on your machine. |
