    Just read an article on msnbc and the linked article to MSFT.

    I had become curious about this because Norton AV reported a temp internet file downloaded by clicking a link to PC Magazine from their email newsletter as a trojan that it could not fix or delete.

    I was able to get rid of the file using EasyClean, but otherwise could not delete it. I did not save the file name though, I wish I had. However, it was not one of the files mentioned.

    Edit: I just read Newt's Post on this same Trojan, wondering if some change got the PC Magazine site infected?

    Comments on this article?

    Fuzzy maybe. :confused: I edited my post after I saw yours. Wondering about the PC Magazine link. It has happened twice. & even though Norton AV gave me the file name, copy paste into search, no results. Very suspicious.
