to put it simply: i could just be paranoid & overthinking, however some reassurance would be nice.
for a while now my norton has been blocking & occasionally putting into quarantine trojan.zefarch. the only bad thing i noticed was my internet connection going dead. i never had site redirects, random popups or other weird browser issues. my computer speed never changed & other than that my itunes was just being dumb & making it hard to put music on my iphone. my screen never changed background or theme or anything like that. its just the little popup of autoprotect saying trojan.zefarch had been blocked & my computer is now secure.
right now my computer is in the hands of geek squad. they are scanning my computer, tuning it up & fixing my cd drive (separate issue, not related to the trojan). i had backed up my personal files (music, videos, pictures & documents) prior to taking it in & am having that scanned as well when i pickup my computer. i have a lot of music, i write & have many meaningful pictures. a scan of both drives said they were secure. the wait for my computer is killing me & wondering about my files being safe is driving me crazy. i would really hate to lose anything.
is it possible that because i only lost internet connection & had no weird site redirects to contract another trojan that i acted in time & my personal files will not be lost? any reassurance would be great. thank you.
