Beyond Class Trojan??

This morning while running my weekly scan, the NAV found a trojan, Beyond Class. Norton could not repair the file, but quarantined it. Subsequently I deleted it. I am ru;nning an online trojan scan, and so far it has not shown up. A second scan of Norton did not show it, so I guess I was able to delete it from the Norton quarantine folder.

Does anyone know anything about this trojan? I have reported it to Symantec, but probably will not hear for several days.

I do not have an anti trojan program. What is a good one that will be compatible with NAV and my Kerio firewall?

Thanks,
Jerry

Thanks,
I have seen them discussed in times past, and now I'll get more interested. I will see which ones seem to be preferred.

The byte verifier java exploit has some folks also asking....where's thu beef ?

Thanks for the help. I did as suggested with the Jave cache.
Symantec told me to delete it. I did, and then dl A2, and ran it. It did not show any trojans. I guess there are bette anti-trojans than A2, but that was a fast way to get one.

Any suggestions as to an anti-trojan program when I get a new computer in a few months?

You may want to take a look here for further discussion on security and how to make your system that much stronger and here for more.

Thanks.
I have been downloading AV, and security programs and put them on a disk so that if my computer crashes I will have them to put on the new one before I get on the web.
I am not sure if I should download the paid trial versions such as the NOD 32 or KAV or not. I would not use them until I get the new machine. I have NAV 2003 and while it has been good, I intend to go to something like KAV.

I would leave this until the week before you get your new system as programs change and update…

As per above, except you may like to try these a few weeks prior to see which you are happy with…

well i tryed it all but it wont remove the beyond class thing..even my NAV 2005 wont pick it up with scan.... now what?

 

From what I have just read you should be able to remove this by following the comprehensive steps found in General Cleaning.

If these steps do not resolve your situation, you will need to download and run “Hijack This” found here and post your log at one of the forums found at A-SAP. The two bigger forums for HijackThis log processing, (meaning they process more log threads each day than most others) are: SpywareInfo.com and CastleCops.com. Be sure to read their posting policy in the links at their log review forum sections prior to posting.

The steps mentioned in General Cleaning use software that ought to be part of your security, as an absolute minimum.

Once your system is clean, you may want to take a look here for further discussion on security and how to make your system that much stronger and here for more.

This is what works really well for me, very simple to use and maintain.

Hope this helps...

Let us know how you go.
