Is it possible I have a system file with Trojan attached? Or the file just looks like system files do I have run a Trojan scanning software on my PC, and it found several files infested – and they all seemed as system files to me. So I just didn’t delete them, because I was too afraid I am going to damage my system.

Hey there. You are right about system files; they can really get damaged and modified when there is a Trojan on your PC.I don’t know what to advise you – whether you should or shouldn’t delete them, because I do not know which files are corrupted or modified by the Trojan. You should look more closely to the report of the scan and see which Trojan they are being attacked with, so you should look on the internet for the answer on the question what that worm does to your system and the files it attacks. So, I would advise you to run the scanning software again, and than see what you are going to do.
