    Well from the article, it is a .exe file that you need to run so do not run that file and you are ok...

    Excerpt from http://www.xpaperx.com/tron.html:

    Install the TronServer on the system you wish to administrate by executing the TronServer.EXE on this system.

    Nothing new there... Have a good Antivirus that quarantines potentially harmful files and scan any executable you download from the net. If it is intstalled, I am sure you can scan your computer with a Trojan scanner to find it and eradicate.

    personally i like Tiny Personal Firewall from TinySoftware.com

    and that trojan probably focuses on some vulnerabliites of some of todays top used firewalls, so no it probably doesnt work on getting through all firewalls.

    ZoneALarm is ok. Not configurable enough to my likings though... Well the free version, I never used the pro version...
