Avoid Trojan.FakeRean.CX from entering from the web

[Santy]

I am using Windows Vista operating system and I am searching for some technique that will help me to avoid Trojan.FakeRean.CX from entering from the web. This infection always enters into my system when I start the internet. The Avast antivirus helps me to get rid of the same. I cannot understand that how it always gains entry into the system. If this is a browser issue, then please help me with the suitable solutions, since I am using IE 8.

I was facing a similar problem in my system like I used to get the alerts of the infections whenever I was connecting to the internet. I realized that the infections used to enter from the email attachments that I used to open from the unknown users. So, to avoid Trojan.FakeRean.CX from entering from the web, you will have to make sure that you open only those attachments that are send from the known users only.

You may be downloading pirated softwares from the internet because of which the infections are getting into the system when the internet is started. So, to avoid Trojan.FakeRean.CX from entering from the web, you will have to get rid of such downloads. This is because when the pirated softwares are downloaded, the infections, if present along with them are downloaded automatically into the system.
