    Hello All,

    My Grisoft AVG just found a Trojan Horse. It specifically says, Trojan Horse BackDoor.Generic Pstools.exe JAcheck.dll

    It was put in the virus vault, however it said some of it could not be healed.

    This all means very little to me except that I still have a problem. I have not noticed anything seriously wrong however I dont feel comfortable with this coming up.

    I did a forum wide search and it came up with no matches.
    I know the proticall for this forum about getting help, but I would first like someone to help explain this trojan to me. Has anyone heard of it before?

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks in advance,
    Global
