Unstream Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 I'm not even sure what a trojan is. To borrow Will's diagram again: <---- words O <---- my head RIG, care to pop out of nowhere and explain stuff with diagrams again? I'm not RIG (but you can call him AA, or Theo), but I can answer that question. Trojans are programs that appear to be a functioning program but are actually viruses. For example, I download a video from the internet, but it isn't really a video, it's a keylogger (just as an example. It can be various sorts of malicious programs), or it's like a video, but not what you wanted, and it has an attachment that does something else. As you can see, they get their name from the Trojan Horse in the Iliad, because they pretend to be something you want but end up hurting you. Or at least that's what I understood of them when I looked them up cause my computer got a few before. If anyone knows better feel free to add to/correct what I have. Glad you like my diagram though :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unstream Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Well that's actually not how you get trojans. I don't think you can get them just browsing the internet or viewing websites, you have to actually download something from the internet. It's something you might need to be more concerned about if you're using file sharing programs like Limewire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Ryan Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Seeing as I have no idea what that is, does that mean i'm safe? The last thing I downloaded was when I actually hit the "download button" on my laptop when some random pop up came up on some random website but my dad installed osme new virus protection then...

I don't think you can get them just browsing the internet or viewing websites, you have to actually download something from the internet. It's something you might need to be more concerned about if you're using file sharing programs like Limewire. which is why you should always scan anything you download with a good antivirus program before you open or use it. doing that seems to have kept me virus/trojan free.

Unstream Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Yeah, doing it Myles's way should keep you safe :yes: SS, if you're worried, you can scan your computer with whatever AV program you have, and delete anything that it finds. If you don't find anything, I wouldn't worry about it too much, unless you notice something wrong with your computer. Remember, if you have a virus or whatever already on your computer, just having an AV program won't get rid of it (though it might do background scans for you and find it). You have to tell the program to delete it, otherwise it won't, because it doesn't know if you need that file or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Ryan Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Ok, i'll try that. Just I have a few questions. Starting with, what's an AV program? Is that like Norton or McAfee? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unstream Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Yup, AV stands for antivirus. And McAfee and Norton are the two most well known ones. Unfortunately that means that they're the ones that people try to work around, so for that reason you'll probably have to update them frequently (that should be done automatically). Two lesser known ones are AVG and Avast!, and I've heard they're pretty good. Best part is, they're free ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
̊ ˉˉ ̊ Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Ok, i'll try that. Just I have a few questions. Starting with, what's an AV program? Is that like Norton or McAfee? yes. also, If you're using a microsoft computer, I suggest using Microsoft Security Essentials http://www.microsoft...ity_Essentials/ reason being, it's quite effective, free, and optimized for windows (so it's less intrusive) AVG & Avast! especially are good too.

Theresa2 Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Aother good virus program is norton 360 I have this in my computer is great program I never have a problem with my computer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Ryan Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 I heard Norton programs take up too much memory on a computer though. That's why my dad switched to Mcafee on everyone's computer but mine. He simply put up one and left the other on my laptop. o.o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unstream Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 I use McAfee cause it comes free with Comcast, but I probably wouldn't pay for an AV program, since there are a bunch of good free ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theresa2 Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 yes there is lots of free one too but I had McAfee once and I got a nasty virus one wile having it in my computer so just beacuse its frre dosent mean it good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Ryan Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Yeah, that's what everyone uses at my house too. My grandpa even uses it now. o.o But you know, it it kinda nice having two different anti-virus protection programs on my computer. Although McAfee dosen't ask to scan, I have to get it to do that manually. And I fnally got around to drawing a Ban-mobile to run people over with on the ban thread. xD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theresa2 Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 thats why I like norton you can set it up too scan on its own and at a certain time every day too thats why I like it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
