Hello,

Computer running slowly. I am running Windows XP updated. Something happened to my Norton AntiVirus to make the auto scan not work. Uninstalled/reinstalled - same problem. So I downloaded AVG free edition and scanned my computer. It indicated I have:

Trojan Horse BackDoor.Punctes.A

I ran the following and no Trojan Horse was found:

Ad-aware SE
CW Shredder
Spybot Search and Destroy
TDS-3

I rebooted. Would someone please review my Hijack This log please:

Hello,

I know it says not to bump but it looks like this got lost in the shuffle. Would appreciate very much your help.

Hi Catharsis,

Sorry you had to wait so long.

I found lots of references that AVG found this trojan in an installer and it turned out to be a false positive.

If you know which file was detected as that trojan could you upload that file here:
http://virusscan.jotti.org/ (if it's not too big)
Before we go off on a wild gosse chase over nothing.

Then download and unzip to one folder:
http://metallica.gee...com/findlop.zip

Inside the folder find findlop.bat

Doubleclick it and it will create the file C:\findlop.txt
Find that file and copy the content into your next post.

Also get the latest verison of HijackThis 1.99.1 and post a log made with that.

Regards,

Pieter

Thank you Metallica,

It looks like it was a false positive. My Norton Anti Virus decided to start working again and it didn't find this trojan. It was associated with financial software I purchased and downloaded from disc. Looks like everything if fine now.

Thank you again.
