Hey guys,

This guy says hes going to send me a trojan, get into my comp, delete all my stuff, then ruin my computer.

Serious or not, I want to know a good program thats free that will block anyone from getting into my comp.

I have an anti virus program and such but i want something extra so that i wont have to do a scan and will alert me right away if someone is trying to get into my comp. Any suggestions? thanks!

haven't heard of that but do know zone alarm was being sued by 180solution for defamation or along those lines as they say zone alarm says 180solutions is spyware which they are. both Ad-Aware se, Spybot s&d plus others say the same thing about 180solutions is spyware.

Hay man try these progs out CWSshredder, HIJackthis and the others mentioned on here such Ada-ware and Spybot and a virus scan in safe mode as well. If that dont work search the name of the trojan on google and hopefully you will find a way of removing it

@-nowayhose-

If some one says they are going to send me a trojan and delete my stuff...I would have to laugh my ass off at that. You must have made a serious enemy to get a threat (hehe*chukling under my breath*) to have someone send you a (hehe*chukling under my breath again*) trojan.

But anyways lots of proggys here mentioned are all good so go with that and try not to make anymore enemies.
