That's what you get for using Warez.
now for the trojans AVG should kill most of them if it for some reason does not you can always try Avast which is also free. -------------------- |

yes avast can be trusted i use it myself in a long line of anti virus/spwyware/malware programs on other ppls pcs to clean off viruses and other nastys.
I can also recommend other free ones sometimes some pick up ones that others miss as Sbybot Search and Destroy and AdAware if you want a few more to look look here (im a pc tech and i do all this and more on a day to day basis to you can trust hunter and I on this. well me at least ) |

spybot and avast together are the best cause avast gets the virus' while spybot gets the adware and all the little stuff

If all fails..try kaspersky 2010 trial edition and you'd be fine. If you are downloading stuff, always use pvt trackers. DO NOT download frm public trackers.
