Hi,

This site helped me before when my old laptop got spyware and through your help it was cleaned.

However, I have this problem today. I have this trojan horse Downloader.UHT my AVG will heal it but then when I install back my application (Cabal.exe) it keeps on coming back.

How can I delete it wherein I can still install my application?

Hope you can help me.

Thanks a lot.
Angela

Cabal.exe, the game file? And AVG AS is detecting it? That would be because it is packed [and the packer wrapper shows up] and many AV/AS wares pick up the packers as Trouble: viruses etc often use packers to disguise their files, to avoid strings being recognised. Set your AVG to ignore it, cos for "heal" you should read "break" in this case...
Lessee... in Scanner, Settings set Quarantine as the default action;
Then in Infections, Exceptions add a rule to ignore it.

Since Im using AVG FRee Edition can;t find this "Lessee... in Scanner, Settings set Quarantine as the default action;Then in Infections, Exceptions add a rule to ignore it." Hope you can still help me. When I Open the file the the AVG notifier prompts me, I click Ignored but then I cannot access the file anymore.

Yeah... if you run a proper firewall [not windows one-way deal] it would detect if a trojan was trying to call out and warn you. The game file is okay, though, it is a false alarm.
You are using AVG AS?

Isn't Cabal.exe an executable of a game called "Cabal Online"?

Yeah, but is the problem with AVG AS or AVG AV?
AVG AV does funny stuff... for a while it suddenly started picking up my IceSword, did it a couple of times, and breaking it, and then it just started ignoring it. Dunno what that was about...
If it is AVG AV doing over cabal.exe, go into the virus vault and select cabla.exe, hit the restore button. That's gotta be quicker than reinstalling the game. And it should learn from that.
