Trojan horse is a computer virus and is from a link you have clicked and downloaded. Also it can be passed on by e-mail so you have to be very careful shoever sends the mail to you. It will steal your personal information from your computer.



Sometimes anti-viruses can't delete the infected because it will hide in your programms and by the time your anti-virus has said to delete it has moved to another file. So the best thing to do is get a technician to destroy the virus and make your computer immune to it or (not a good idea but) rebut the whole computer or buy another computer.

They are bad things like spyware, viruse, worm, etc.



Trojan is one of bad softwares but unlike others trojan will show itself to you, and will show as a good software and it will work and do something for you and you may even install it yourself, for example you would download a free software from internet which will do something useful for you but it will do another thing in hidden which will be a bad thing, like gathering your info and sending it!! if your antivirus can't deal with it and destroy it, I suggest you to get a new antivirus, something more trusted and more powerful and don't install softwares which you don't trust.
