[mosquito]

Hello, i need help. My Norton antivirus told me i was infected and the virus name is Trojan.Maljava

I thought it was deleted by the antivirus program but its still there. How does this happen? how do i delete it?

P.S i have absolutely no idea where to post this topic so i put it here, sorry if i'm wrong.

I suggest taking your computer to an IT professional, preferably one that deals with this type of thing on a regular basis. While it is possible to fix virus infestations yourself, I usually strongly recommend against it if you don't know exactly what you're doing, or have access to someone that does to help you along.

I had a pesky virus once that kept bullying me, sometimes I couldn't listen to audio files because my sound card driver was "corrupted"??? Restarting my pc fixed it for awhile, but came back again.

I re-installed windows, problem fixed. But it took a day before I got all my shit back together.

this is probably the best advice you can get, given the information you've provided. I would suggest taking it.

Thank you for the help.

Luckily I was able do deal with the problem on my own.

After doing some searching i found some useful removing tips. http://www.americanpendulum.com/en/2012/11/08/trojan-maljavagen24/ It appears that the virus was not actually a trojan, but a malware infection. Probably that's why my antivirus was not able to handle with it. I read that i should download an antimalware program and do a scan with it. http://community.norton.com/t5/Norton-Internet-Security-Norton/Trojan-MalJava-keeps-coming-back/td-p/849594

Also i did some manual removing. I uninstalled java(i do not know if i will need it in the future but for now i'm fine without it) and disabled all java plugins from my browser. And i also deleted this file Ntshrui.dll

So now my PC is healthy : )))

Thanks again and bye.

A Trojan is type of malware/virus, the names are loosely interchangeable. Glad to hear you were able to handle it yourself. I always recommend changing all passwords immediately after ascertaining that the virus/malware is dead.
