    Hey there. I've had a couple of bad files come through to my computer but I remember Norton Anti-Virus catching every single one of these bad files such as trojans. Anyways I tried the F-Secure Online Anti-Virus and it found this.

    C:\Program Files\Norton AntiVirus\Quarantine\4A186EC0.exe Trojan-Downloader.Win32.IstBar.hp

    C:\Program Files\Norton AntiVirus\Quarantine\4A226CB5.dll Trojan-Downloader.Win32.Dyfuca.gen

    C:\Program Files\Norton AntiVirus\Quarantine\4A2516B1.exe Trojan-Downloader.Win32.Dyfuca.du

    C:\Program Files\Norton AntiVirus\Quarantine\4EE029CD.exe Trojan-Downloader.Win32.Dyfuca.du

    C:\Program Files\Norton AntiVirus\Quarantine\61FB790E.exe Trojan-Dropper.Win32.Small.br


    I just want to make sure that I'm seeing that these files are under my Quarantine list with Norton Antivirus right? So how do I get these off and delete them completely or do they have to stay there?

    You could delete them from Notron Anti-virus, or from
    C:\Program Files\Norton AntiVirus\Quarantine\ manually, or in safe mode.

    Blimey, does your mum still cut up your meat for ya?
    Do it in Norton. You'll not need to reboot for that.

    Norton asks you if you want to keep them or perm delete them.

    If they are in the Quarantine folder then don't worry about them. They won't do any harm being there.
