Trojan Horse
"Lou" <louisr[ at ]copper.net> 6/12/2007 6:22:38 PM
This may be the wrong news group for this question. If it is, kindly tell me
the correct one.
I am using OE 6 and IE 7 w/ windows XP SP2.
AVG anti-Virus Free Edition performed its regularly scheduled scan of my
computer.
It found a Trojan Horse named JS/Uniz.B
It also provided a file name and path.
Upon completion of the scan, it deleted the Trojan.
I have confirmed that the Trojan no longer resides on my computer. At least
I cannot find it.
Is there anything that I should do, other than change my firewall?

Lou

Most such things are installed, inadvertantly, by the user. It doesnt mean
anything has got past your Firewall.
Turn off system restore untill you know you are clean

Why on earth would you want to turn off system restore? You will lose all
restore points. Maybe you'll need one a week or so back in time.

Because if the sys is infected, then cleaned, if you subsequently use sys
restore you will be reinfected

You are of course assuming the restore data is infected. Bad assumption. If
one can go back a few weeks for example that time period may not be
infected. Very bad advice turning off system restore.

The AV vendors recommend turning off system restore during the virus/malware
removal process in order to keep from having a new restore point created
that still contains the virus. After the infection is removed, you turn
system restore back on.

You won't lose any restore points. You're turning off the program, not
deleting restore points.

Not true. Turning off System Restore also deletes all existing restore
points. The AV vendors may recommend doing it that way, but I
disagree. It decreases your options and is a poor choice.

When you turn off system restore it automatically deletes all restore
points. Try it. Then turn it back on and you'll see.
I repeat-----Extremely poor advice.
