How to Remove a Trojan

Win32 Agent Malware

Trojan Win32 Agent is a

Type of Malware which is

capable of installing

software/programs on

your computer without

your permission. The

program installed will

launch whenever your

computer is restarted/

rebooted. These types of

Trojans may even steal

your Data files according to

the wish of the hacker.

While you can get rid of a

Trojan Win32 Agent

manually, the removal

process can be difficult for

some, and in some cases

may still not be enough to

properly remove the

infection. For most

computer users, antivirus

software will be the best

method for both removing

the trojan and protecting

the computer from future

infections. How to Remove

it? * Download and install

an antivirus program such

as kaspersky Antivirus,

Norton Antivirus, Avast

Antivirus or any highly

rated antivirus software. If

the trojan has rendered you

unable to connect to the

Internet, download the

software in Windows “Safe

Mode with Networking.” If

necessary, use another

computer to download the

software to a CD or USB

drive, and then install the

program from the device. *

Run the antivirus program.

Update the software’s

definitions; usually antivirus

software, after installation,

is not completely up-to-

date. This means it might

not be able to detect the

Trojan Win32 Agent until it

is updated. An update utility

program is included with

most antivirus software.

Launch this utility upon

running the software. *

After the definitions have

updated, use the software

to designate which files and

folders you want scanned.

It’s usually a good idea to

scan the entire hard disk. *

Press the scan button and

allow the software to

search for the Trojan Win32

Agent. This may take

anywhere from several

minutes to a few hours. *

Follow the antivirus

software’s instructions on

how to remove the trojan.

Some antivirus software

will automatically remove

the infection; other such

software will allow you to

either quarantine or delete

the infection. * Schedule

your antivirus software to

scan your drive at least

once a week. Configure the

software so that it will scan

every file you download to

make sure none are

infected. Most virus

removal software will do

this automatically
