Good Morning Roee_co

Two Questions since this is the same one you posted previously.
Are you running windows xp or windows me?.
The second trojan was it found in System volume information or what
was the path where the file was found?

If this was found in the system volume information turn off your
System Restore and you are running XP.

Right click my computer.
Select Properties.
Select the System Restore Tab.
Enable "Turn off System Restore"
Restart your computer in SAFE MODE.
Press F8 after the BIOS Boot.
Run another scan of your system.

Reboot your system.
Follow the above steps to rebuild your system checkpoints by disabling
"Turn off System Restore"
