Trojan protection -- TroGuard
(c) 1998 Norman Data Defense Systems
The trojans W95/BackOrifice and W32/Netbus are widely distributed and can
severely compromise security on affected machines. TroGuard is a small
program that cooperates with the Norman Virus Control package in order to
catch and kill such malicious processes on your Win95/98/NT system, restore
the system registry and delete the trojan executable.
A good way to use it is to place a shortcut to it the Win95/98/NT startup
folder in order to secure a clean bootup.
As mentioned, TroGuard requires Norman Virus Control to be installed on
the machine - this ensures that TroGuard will keep up-to-date with most
new trojans as they are released just by updating the scanner definition
file.
This version now also works under Win NT; you should have logged on with
admin rights as TroGuard might need to do a process kill.
The file PSAPI.DLL should be installed in the same directory as TroGuard.
TroGuard takes one parameter; /n = do not delete trojan if found.
