    Default where is the waiting room

    How do I find the "waiting room" you referred to.

    I just got another downloader.generic7.AGNL threat notice.

    I really do need help on this.

    Thank you

    Devin

    Was AVG successful in removing the trojan?

    This "trojan.downloader" seems serious. It may open a backdoor or install more garbage. But don't worry you're in good hands.

    What is a Trojan Downloader?
    [quote=Trojan Downloader (generic description)

    Trojan downloader is usually a standalone program that attempts to hiddenly download and run other files from remote web and ftp sites. Usually trojan downloaders download different trojans and backdoors and activate them on an affected system without user's approval. Trojan downloader, when run, usually installs itself to system and waits until Internet connection becomes available. After that it attempts to connect to a web or ftp site, download specific file or files and run them.[/quote]

    Default trojan threat

    AVG has not been successful getting rid of it.

    I have run ewido anti spyware. Ewido detects the threat and removes the threat at that time but the threat returns when the laptop is turned on again or when it is rebooted.

    Thank you
