Hi
I've a trojan (TR/Ladder) and it's hidden in the file "ieloader(1).cab". May I delete this file or not?
How can I remove the trojan? Cause a virusscanner can detect it but can't remove it!!It blocks my OutlookExpress.

Delete the file.
You do not specify your OS. You may need to come in as Admin to delete it. That failing, restart and come in under Safe Mode. Delete it. Restart. If running ME/XP, be sure you've got system restore disabled before removal, else it'll be back.

Hi carrr
OS is WinXP Home...
I've tried your solution. "System Restore" has always worked properly on my system but strange enough, it doesn't work anymore ???
 
You'll ned to elaborate. What do you mean by "doesn't work anymore?" You don't want it operational when doing virus/trojan cleanup, because it'll just throw the bug back on your pc at reboot.
