    Protect the system from Win-Trojan/Zbot.86016.D

    Is there any method to protect the system from Win-Trojan/Zbot.86016.D? Everytime I am surfing the internet, I keep getting the alerts of Win-Trojan/Zbot.86016.D from the Avira antivirus, that I have installed in my system. I am able to delete the infection, but it keeps entering the system when I browse the internet. I cannot understand why this is happening. Please help me with suitable remedies to this problem as soon as possible.

    Use a firewall in the system

    I advice you to use a firewall in the system to protect the system from Win-Trojan/Zbot.86016.D. Firewalls when installed or enabled in the system act as entry points for all the data and information that is entering into the system from the network. So, they check for each and every bit of information and if it finds a malicious content, it simply rejects them from entering the system.

    Protect the Windows user accounts with strong passwords

    Protect the Windows user accounts with strong passwords to protect the system from Win-Trojan/Zbot.86016.D. Such type of infections are put into the system, generally for the attacker to gain access into the system. The attackers will try to get information from the system that will allow them to gain unauthorized access into the system. Use a strong combination of alphabets, numbers and symbols, so that the user will find it difficult to break the password.

    It is recommended to avoid downloading pirated softwares to protect the system from Win-Trojan/Zbot.86016.D. The attackers put the infections along with the pirated softwares, since they know that a lot of users will be searching for the pirated softwares and ultimately fall prey to this attack. So, when you will download the pirated software, you will be actually downloading the infections into the system.
