Facts
1) he uses Logmein to check his Mother's computer - she is in the USA and uses Yahoo for e-mail and the home page, OS is XP - using Avast and some malware stuff [ don't know what :( ] Avast is up to date , likewise XP.
2) His computer [ in the UK ] is Ubuntu - using Avast and up to date too
3) USA computer is telling them that there is a Trojan detected - no evidence found BUT Yahoo in the UK is clear of this Trojan [ he checked ]. After a bit of 'faffing about ' he managed to get to Yahoo USA and found to his horror he got the Trojan warning too .
I do have a screen shot he sent me - but I'm not sure [ Mac User ] how to get it on here - and the warning is very very clear .
Has anyone heard anything about this ? Can it be cleared from this end ?
The problem is that her e-mail is through Yahoo - so till this is sorted she is rather concerned . Her computer has been scanned today and is clean.
