NOD32 is a good av with trojans? mmmmm

[Jones]

Hello,
my NOD32 finds always 9 infected files and it doesn't succeed to
delete or clean them.
I also made a manual scan with "Clean" button but nothing.
They are in Temporary Internet Files ..... and they are:
"Win32/TrojanDownloader.Ramech.C Trojan"
Sure I have deleted them manually by Internet Explorer with "Delete
Files" button but I'd like to know if really NOD32 is a so
inoffensive antivirus with trojans.
thanks

bye Jones

Clue is in the name. A Trojan is not a virus. NOD32 is Anti-VIRUS software.

Not in the true sense in the replication meaning but Anti Virus products do afford
protection from many forms of Malware not just TRUE viruses.

1) Download the following three items...

Trend Sysclean Package
http://www.trendmicro.com/download/dcs.asp

Latest Trend signature files.
http://www.trendmicro.com/download/pattern.asp

Adaware SE (free personal version v1.05)
http://www.lavasoftusa.com/

Create a directory.
On drive "C:\"
(e.g., "c:\New Folder")
or the desktop
(e.g., "C:\Documents and Settings\lipman\Desktop\New Folder")

Download SYSCLEAN.COM and place it in that directory.
Download the Trend Pattern File by obtaining the ZIP file.
For example; lpt246.zip

Extract the contents of the ZIP file and place the contents in the same directory as
SYSCLEAN.COM.

2) Update Adaware with the latest definitions.
3) If you are using WinME or WinXP, disable System Restore
http://vil.nai.com/vil/SystemHelpDocs/DisableSysRestore.htm
4) Reboot your PC into Safe Mode
5) Using both the Trend Sysclean utility and Adaware, perform a Full Scan of your
platform and clean/delete any infectors/parasites found.
(a few cycles may be needed)
6) Restart your PC and perform a "final" Full Scan of your platform using both the
Trend Sysclean utility and Adaware
7) If you are using WinME or WinXP,Re-enable System Restore and re-apply any
System Restore preferences, (e.g. HD space to use suggested 400 ~ 600MB),
8) Reboot your PC.
9) If you are using WinME or WinXP, create a new Restore point

Clue is in the name. A Trojan is not a virus. NOD32 is Anti-VIRUS software.

You should send an email to Eset's webmaster then, there's an error on
one of their pages:

Doesn't anybody use POP3 Scan Mailbox any more? It solves all my email
problems. In seven years I've never had a virus problem, what with POP3
SM and NOD32 on the case.
