    Trojans and worms


    I received a message upon startup yesterday that I was infected with a Trojan xcc32 and a worm.system32. Theyu wanted me to contact someone to fix the problem. I just dismessed the pop up and went about my business. Have not heard again from them. Am I OK - it seems I am, or should I be doing something to fix a computer that may not be broken

    Thx

    Rick

    Possible trojan worm

    I was on the Internet and then a msg appeared stating to call MS at 1-888-660-1755. It stated that I have RDN Trojan worm 1655BCC 5113134 Infection.

    I did not call the number.

    Thanks.

    calc.exe Calculator worms IRCBot backdoor Trojans

    Lynn,

    Are you saying Defender detects Microsoft's own calculator as an IRC backdoor Trojan?? That seems unlikely, really. It detects it, then what? That worm is very old and risk level is rated Low by Symantec.
