Hi Guys and Gals
I am at my wits end again.
The Trojans are back.
I have used Avast in boot-up mode, HijackThis, A(squared) &
TrojanRemover.
All seems well for a while and then Avast reports a stack
of Trojans one after the other in this location -
C:\Documents and Settings\Eric\LocalSettings\Temp\wfyusyl.dll.
Its the .dll files that are infected.
Of course I can't delete them from the temp folder while in
Windows because I get the message fault that "the file is
being used by another program".
I have an old dos-based "Norton Commander" that is very
useful at times like this since it has twin panes (as in Explorer)
where you can see what are in the folders. So I deleted all
the files and yet when I reboot somehow these Trojans are
being generated - with different suffixes - elsewhere in the
system and I get Avast warning me that I have a Trojan - you
guessed it - in the same location as last. If I don't do anything
about it, more of them are generated, sometimes in the Win/system
folder.
HELP!

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
