What are Trojan Horses?
They are very dangerous! Trojans or often called backdoors are programs which will most be sent via email, instant-messengers or filesharing-tools. If you run a trojan file it will install itself on your computer to get run every time you boot up your machine. Trojans opens a port (channel) on your system which can be used by an attacker to connect to your computer. Trojans can enable almost everything for an attacker to do harmful things like viewing/modifying/deleting data, watching you when you are working or surfing the web, etc. Depending on the trojan there can be thousands of functions built in which can be remotely used by any attacker to spy you.
What is Anti-Trojan?
Anti-Trojan 5.5 is a powerful trojan scanner and remover which detects more than 8000 different types of trojan horses. It uses three methods to find them. The first is the portscan which gives you information if there are open ports on your computer. The second one is the registry scan which searches through the system registry database for trojans. The third and the most important part is the disk scan. It scans your harddisks for dangerous trojan files and removes them safely.
