    well... i explained my problem on this thread : http://forums.majorgeeks.com/showthread.php?p=443093#post443093
    but apparently it's better to start a new one :)

    so let's go !
    I have the downloader.pf trojan, and can't get rid of it. I followed all steps explained on the thread above, but i have one problem : when i reboot into safe mod with network support, i still don't have my adsl cnnection, and thus can't run the online scans required... so i runed them in normal mods, and then went into safety mod.

    in fact, some scan told me i had nothing, others told me i had the trojan, but none of them was able to remove it...

    if someone could help me that would really be great !!

    well...
    i didn't understand a word of what it is talking about...
    it's a bit too complicated for a french girl i guess ^_^
    i am not bad with computer, but this part is not my favorite one :(

    when i do ctrl+alt+sup i can see an explorer.exe or a winlogon.exe but isn't it normal ??

    i'd also like to know how can i have internet in safe mod, is it possible ??

    You never told us what OS you have. Also I asked you to post your HijackThis log. Are you having a problem trying to do that?

    explorer.exe and winlogon.exe are normal Windows processes depending upon where they are running from.
