Trojan Byte Verify

by Timespirt Oct 3, 2008 6:08PM PDT

Norton found this Trojan.Byte Verify on my computer, when I looked it up I found other people saying it was hard to get rid of and that the Norton fix does not work. All my security is up to date and working and I have a router, 2 firewalls and the MS patch that was supposed to keep this from happening. How can I find this thing and get it off my computer? Norton says it found it and fixed it, but what does that mean?
