TROJAN HORSE WAS FOUND!!! - kap - 03-15-2009
That is what Avast is telling me whenever I try to access this website: www.sgvhumane.org. I still can't access it even after Avast is deactivated. I have no problems with any other websites. What else should I do? TiA

Oops, forgot:
I am using FireFox 3.0.7 on our desktop HP Pavillion Slimline s3719t running Vista Home Premium SP1. No problem with my MBP nor the ThinkPad.

no joking about this sutff...my wife's toshiba has that MS Antispyware 2009 trojan/malware...totally hosed her computer. We're paving and re-installing.
I can't believe anybody willingly puts up with this crap. we're dumping it for a macbook when they're next updated...
