Hi All,

Symantec recently discovered Trojan.ByteVerify on my computer. I run system checks weekly and am always cautious about the e-mails I open, the web sites I go to and what I click on, so I was pretty surprised to find I had a Trojan. It was quarantined and removed, but I'm worried about what it may have done and how I got it. Does anyone know anything about this Trojan? Where it comes from, what it does to your system, etc? Thanks!
