    Im just running trojanhunter to see if it can find any other malware, and its found what it calls trojans:

    there are several incidents of each, but surely the combofix i ve installed today isnt a trojan. I was told to download it in the read me section of this forum!

    thanks

    It's highly likely that all of those detections are false positives.

    ...hence the reason that it is not included in our requested scanning tools.
