→Removing Trojan Horses: new section
I would recommend that if you are not PC literate, it would be best to have a professional look at your workstation. Although there are multiple resources online that you can find tutorials or step action guides, I would again be mindful and seek professional help.
== Removing Trojan Horses ==
If you find a Trojan horse on your computer, it’s crucial to get rid of it. There’s no real way to know what exactly the virus is doing, and the sooner you get rid of it, the better. If you find applications on your computer that you didn’t download, remove them. Make sure to remove all files and folders, otherwise, the Trojan could be left. If this doesn’t work, you may also use virus protection software to isolate the program or files. This will help ensure that the Trojan is not harmful to your computer as you remove it. Once you’ve deleted the associated Trojan program, make sure to restart your computer, to ensure that it has been completely removed. If you don’t do this, it can continue to work for the person who programmed it, and against you.
