Got AVG and Spybot but keep getting trojan horse virus'/trojan horse backdoors which avg is finding and deleting but, on spybot it found a file called FireWallOverride. Only go on valid internet sites so i cant understand where these keep coming from. What should i do, does anyone know whats going on? Any help would be appreciated.

first ,if you are using windows firewall i suggest you download kerio (free) and use that instead.
try this link and follow the links in the answers.

firewall override comes up if you have windows firewall turned off because you are using a firewall of your own. as long as you are using a firewall that is working properly, i would not worry.

ok avg is finding the virus/trojan and reporing that it has deleted it. But your problem is it keeps coming back?

try turning off system restore {right click on my comp then select propertys then system restore and turn it off on your c drive} then run avg delet the virus/trojan once avg has done a complete scan and the virus/trojan is deleted run avg again this time it should not detect any thing [cool} ok you can now turn your system restor back on
follow b simpson's advice - should sort it.
