How do I permanenetly remove a Trojan Horse infection from my windows XP capable laptop? My computer always finds the same cookies and adware and this one Trojan Horse. They go into quarantine automatically, but after hibernating or starting the computer up, on the following sweep, they always reappear. What can I do so that once some items get quarantined they stay there? __________________________ market samurai ~ marketsamurai ~ marketsamurai.com

Get Norton 360 maybe? Otherwise, re-install Windows and then get Norton 360. It seems to work alright.

My approach for you is:
1.) Get the name of the Trojan from your Antivir software. Google for the trojan. There will be for sure a solution available how to get permanently rid of this Trojan.
2.) Why are you putting your infected stuff into quarantine? Do you want to save them for later? Those files are, and will remain infected. Setup your scanner to delete infected files immediately otherwise you are in risk to copy these files onto a fresh installation again or spread them elsewhere.
3.) Some Virus/Trojan can only be removed when the Auto-Restore of windows is switched off. But this is then for sure documented in the solution -> See 1.)
4.) Get a better Scanner. There are lots of freeware scanners which are daily updated and will block 99% of the Trojan/Virus out there. Kaspersky, Avast, whatever....
5.) If you have a serious infection -> back luck -> re-install windows on a NEWLY CREATED PARTITION and dont go to the internet before you have installed a scanner.
Good Luck.
