I'm looking for an Anti Trojan program that I can use to occasionally
check my networked PCs. I've looked at a number of different programs
and tried a few crippled demos.

I practice safe hex and I don't think that I'm at a big risk for trojans
but I want to make sure.

Most anti trojan software that I've seen sells for around $40 - $50 USD.
I don't mind paying for 1 copy but.....

I wouldn't mind installing and uninstalling for occasional scans but it
would be nice to have a license for more than 1 PC like F-Prot AV or to
be able to check PCs across a network.

Any suggestions?

Chas.

AVG has a free antivirus package.
For pay packages, they have a Pro version.

Trend Micro's PC-cillin is also very good.

anti-virus != anti-trojan

Chas, try AČ from Emisoft. It is an anti-trojan program, and free for
home use.

I didn't say it did. But the packages I mentioned,
do address them. Of course, it is not the only
solution, but definitely one that should be done,
for more than just that reason.

Btw, which AV prog do you use and why?
