Hello! There is new Trojan called SpamThru. It installations itself on antivirus and in registries, so, your antivirus stopping to get updates and you cannot recognize that. Also, this Trojan removes other malware (it is clever, right?), butt keeps its files safe. Changing your antivirus will not helps you, because it same with all of antiviruses. Just be sure that you update your antivirus.
