Thread Starter 
Hello, I just downloaded a game from limewire and after it was done downloading I recieved a message from my antivirus(AVAST) that said "You have a trojan virus..." I did what i recomended(throw it in the vault or something) but I never opened the program. I deleted it right away. Is there anything else I should do? Is my computer going to be okay? Thanks.

Download AVG Antivirus (free edition) it will scan your computer and tell you about all yout viruses you have...i dont have the link so google it. I love AVG, its the only anti virus i use.

Your computer will be fine. What you have to worry about are the things your antivirus DOESNT catch.

Run a full scan just to be sure, but looks like Avast did it's job. I wish I could run 2 AV programs though...

Hmm, this is semi-OT, but which one works better? Avast or AVG? I am using AVG right now, and so far it seems to do quite a good job.
