i run norton antivirus and i have what they call a trojan dropper?? well i try to delete the file and it wont let me? what should i do? i run norton 2005 IS

Write down the file and where it is, and go in to Safe Mode and try to delete it.

i do i go into safe mode

did you try to remove any reference to it in the registry? try that, then restart, and then try to remove it.

DO NOT JUST DELETE IT!!!! u will regret that.
i have never specifically heard of "trojan dropper", but on norton'* website there should be a patch to remove it... just look up the name.
btw i would disconnect that pc from the internet untill u got the problem fixed. and u need to figure out who gave u the trojan, dont download anything from that person again.... a trojan is used to allow someone remote access to your pc without your permission.

ok ive done a little bit of research for u a trojan dropper installs 1 or more other trojans... and here is a url to a page with removal information on nortons website... sorry but they dont have a patch for this one http://securityresponse.symantec.com...n.dropper.html

still no use

I think you got what I had...seriously bad stuff. Mine just kinda slowed down my computer and was a general annoyance but I had no luck finding a way to get rid of it. Running the online virus scan (I got the link from a couple guys on here...Sol, maybe was one) worked for a bit. I ended up doing the great reformat which of course solved the problem.
