and maybe next time slim,you will scan downloaded files before opening
good luck anyway

 

well for one thing there steve, I did scan it before opening it, but I still got the virus and just to let you know I always scan the files that I download before I open them.

 

ok sorry about that slim......i read your thread too fast.....didnt see the "scanned" part

let us know if you get rid of the trojan or not.
good luck.
