Trojans

Abe

I have 4 Trojans on my Mac and don't know how to remove them manually. The Sophos instructions are not clear enough for a computer lay-person like my self.

    Yes, if they're in Time Machine, you'll have to manually remove from within Time Machine.

    Those paths are incomplete... do you happen to know the full path?  It should show up in the Quarantine details if you click on it.  If not, we'll have to go into the SAV logs to get the full path.

    This will show you exactly where in your TM universe the file is located.  Once you know where it is, open the folder containing it in the finder (command-shift-g, and paste in the path starting at Macintosh -- at the end of what you list below), then with that finder window open, enter Time Machine, right/control click the file, and select the option to delete all backups.
