Also, you might want to try writing down exactly what Norton is telling you what that trojan is, and enter that on a google search to see what it might turn up. It could tell you exactly what it is and what it's doing and how and what you need to get rid of it
This is written in imspeak for the benefit of those of us who can't seem to write in English. I'll stick it in quote brackets so nobody gets too confused here. Those of us who aren't ashtified may feel free to skip it entirely:
For the rest of us I'll translate the jist:Quote:

You're a screaming idiot. Lesson one: Learn to speak in proper English before you get negged into oblivion like so many who came before you. Lesson two: Don't offer advice to someone if you don't know what you're doing; you can screw up their box quite royally.

i tried to run the virus scan in safe mode, but it came up with the XP error, send or dont sent report. I ran it in normal mode, and everything seems to be working just fine. The only problem is everytime i run viruscan i get detected 2 viruses. I downloaded a tool to get rid of these and when the tool ran its scan, nothing came up.
it would really help if you gave the names of the two viruses that come up if you havent already.
Definately, you getting the EXACT names of the virus'/trojans and posting them here would be a much bigger help, that way we can look it up and try to find a solution or reference you to someone who can. I don't have any homework that HAS to be done by tomorrow, so I can see what I can find for you.
When you have the names of the viruses you are infected with try putting them through the search forms on the Norton or Sophos site. You should get full step by step removal instructions and you might get a tool to do the job for you.
Other things you might want to add to your machine if you don't have them are
Adaware6 http://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/
Spyware blaster http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.html
Spyware search and destroy http://www.safer-networking.org/en/index.html
These need to be kept up to date and used regularly just like your virus scanner.
