    Hi,

    I was told this may not be a trojan by my instructor and that I should check it out before removal, as it may be the Heuristic? settings in AVG.

    I have a new Toshiba P100-MA2 Lap Top Core 2 Duo
    When the laptop was first turned on it loaded automatically, requesting the usual, name country etc.

    After installing and updating AVG, Ad-Aware & SpySweeper.
    I ran AVG, it immediately found the following trojans.

    Trojan hourse Generic2.LNI

    C:\WINDOWS\I386\win9xmig\eastman\migrate.dll 68KB

    C:\System Volume Information\_restore{74708E23-6913-4F5D-9D7A-54A4A3B96F3C}\RP4\A0000812.DLL 68KB

    Are These Trojans or just part of the O.S.

    Any help will be Greatly Appreciated!

    Chris.

    Thank you
    I removed them both.

    "My Instructor"... I'm taking a college course, called Microcomputer Maintenance and Support. including C++.

    The course is designed from the begining that the student finds answers to questions without instructor intervention unless the student is really stuck.

    You're welcome.

    The first file didn't have to be removed, but isn't actually needed anyway.
