    Hi--

    Found Trellix on my computer and I don't know how it got there. Should I delete it? Does it pose a threat?

    Thanks!

    Thanks for the information. I don't build sites or have a blog. So would it be safe to remove Trellix, or should I probably just leave it on my computer?
    I appreciate the info!!

    Chad is your ISP one that may use Trellix? if so see if their Support has any info on Trellix and removing it as I have no idea if removing it may affect your net connection.. it shouldnt do.

    what OS do you have if XP you could make a system restore point... goto add remove and remove it and see if it affects anything if not then your ok if it does restore back.

    Halo, I'm not sure if my ISP would use Trellix. When I click on Trellix in my Add/Remove section, it lists it as being used "rarely" and indicates it was last used "1/11/2004."

    My OS is XP. If I were to uninstall and it did affect performance, would it simply be a matter of reinstalling? I've never used System Restore, so I'm afraid I don't know much about that function.

    Thanks for your advice, it's much appreciated!
