    Personally I don't see the need for one. If you have good tools from the below list, you should be fine:

    - antivirus
    - antispyware blocker/scanner/remover (many cover the trojan arena anyway like Ewido and Spy Sweeper).
    - true firewall (this does not include the Windows firewall, it is not adequate)

    All of the above and more is covered in: How to Protect yourself from malware!

    However if you still want to add an antitrojan application, see the below (some are not free):

    a-squared (a²) Free edition

    a-squared Anti-Malware Personal Edition

    Anti-Trojan Shield

    TrojanHunter

    Having McAfee Internet Security, Ad-awarePE, Spybot, Spyware Blaster, Windows Defender, is that enough do you think to stop trojans or should i install one just to be on the safe side, installing a seperate one will this work will all my other programs??

    As i dont want to jepordise any of the above that i have running atm.

    Thanks.

    Unless you are a very careless person while surfing, that should be adequate protection for most people. Following the guidelines in the below is very important:

    How to Protect yourself from malware!

    You could add 20 more security programs to your PC, but the users are not careful about what they do, you can still get infected. Your PC security ultimately begins and ends with you (and other users of the PC) and how smart you are while surfing.
