One other thing, there are open internet sites that show you how ez it is to setup a trojan specifically to keylog your acct and pass, so if your not protected you better get that way.

I suggest picking up Norton 2K4 or higher. It scans for Viruses, Keyloggers, Trojans and any other malicious programs. Would be a shame if someone used to trojan to break into your computer and steal passwords and stuff, wouldn't it?

It has millions of purpoes. The name comes from the "trojan horse"
Its a program meant to look safe, but it is actualy malicious. they often tend to download themselves onto your computer aswell, which is annoying.

TROJAN HORSE - A computer program that appears to be something useful, but then does something malicious to your computer. This could range from destroying data to laying dormant and someday hijacking your computer to be used as part of a Denial of Service attack. Anti-virus programs will protect you from known Trojan horses, but strictly speaking Trojan horses are unlike viruses because they do not replicate. However, combination virus/Trojans can replicate
Also, you may want to clean, your Cookies and Cache as well.
