One of my notebooks 'not mine' but one at the house got infected like a mofo! Several trojans, dns changers, etc.

Took me all day to clean, the anti virus program that was installed did not block the original trojan which changes the dns for 'security' type software. The program could not update. I tried multiple other programs, no anti virus program worked!

I finally was able to clean the system using a malware scanner.

What a headache!

I almost did reformat and start over, but wanted to avoid that like a plague.

I use Spybot but it doesn't remove anything. I'm sure I have two trojans on my laptop :fyou1
