TROJAN HORSE
Sep 29 2009, 8:39 AM EDT
A scan of my PC using AVG has revealed 6 Trojan Horses.Four of them are on my backup HD and two are on my C drive. The address will mention the hard drive letter, then one of my personal folders and then the name of my Wetpaint website followed by .exe. The name of the Trojan Horse is Agent 2.GQI All appear to be associated with my Wetpaint website. Any ideas on why this is happening? Although AVG alerts me to the fact , I'm not sure if it actually detroys them when found. Defender says all is normal. Do you find this valuable? |

I remember this happening to me. It turned out to be an ad trying to get you to purchase their software.

Your anti-virus software will probably tell you the location of each virus. Delete the viruses.If the name of the virus file includes the name of your wetpaint site, then it originated in one of the ads. Do you ever remember clicking on an ad, or being automatically sent to a site while using your wiki? Do you find this valuable? |

Please email info@wetpaint.com with the subject report an ad. Then tell them what you just told us.
