    As someone vaguely described earlier, you want something that can do a boot scan, so before anything has a chance to load e.g, the trojan can load and hide its self the anti virus starts a scan and nails it. Avast! offers this feature, google it and download it. Point your browser to www.siteadvisor.com and download it. It tells you all about the website you are browsing, or on google it puts a tick, exclamation mark (warning) or cross next to each URL that shows up. You will see what I mean when you download it but it will keep you (most of the time) well informed about the website and whether or not you should download or even visit thesite. Users can regiser an account and comment on the website and can say what is good/bad and whether mcafee rated this site correctly. This is free btw .

    Also missalice suggested trendmicro, use that it is an online scanner and most crimeware cannot detect it at work so it is quite successful. When you get the chance to buy a new AV/Internet security suite, go Kaspersky imo. Before you can buy a new set of software though I would immediately start using Avast! Over norton.
    Wow. That's brill adivce, +rep!

    Just because its habbo isn't gonna stop them if it does contain a keylogger

    Someone sees a password and username and sees that they just visited habbo uk. What you think they are gonna do? They are gonna try to 'own' them as much as possible by going on all sites they visit which they got the password to.

    Also most trojans contain keyloggers so its high possibilty that it does contain one.

    @Yeski

    Is there any chance you can post name of the trojan signature that got picked up?
    Umm, lemme find the 2 viruses names, and, I'll take a screeny...
    Ok, this is what Norton has got for the "Downloader" in the "Unresolved Security Risks":

    And this is the "Trojan.Horse":


    But, I deleted the file they came in, yet it didn't delete the two viruses, now I don't know where I'm meant to search to delete it.
    I spoke to one of the people at Norton and they said they'll remove them for £70!!
    Help, again please?

    £70? Don't do it
    Disable norton and get avast, I guess you wont be able to uninstall it if it isn't your computer. I have yet to find a virus that can stop Avast!. It is solid.

    I've downloaded Avast! and scanned the folders and everything I could, nothing came up. But it shows the 2 viruses still in Norton's "Unresolved Security Risks"

    Yes, but my cat walked on the keyboard whilst doing it and put its paw on ESC. And now I can't find where the boot scan button is.

    Not all avs can detect the same thing and it seems nortan detected something which avast didn't.. Try another av maybe? AVG?
