A Trojan Horse is so hard to detect because of the way that many Trojan horses are written. Much like the Trojan horse presented to the Greeks by the Trojans, this deadly piece of programming poses itself like a popular game or a music or something that people want. When it is downloaded, it can become memory resident, meaning that it loads itself into the registry and hard drive and stuff like that.
Reason why its so hard to detect is because when a Trojan Horse it written, it usually is designed to kill and processes that are antivirus software processes. For example, Avira Personal Antivirus is called avguard.exe. A simple Trojan horse can automatically detect your antivirus and disable it. If you don't have antivirus to begin with, then that's even worse. Without updatedantivirus software, it is near impossible to detect the latest Trojan Horses, although it can be done.
Now onto the reason why its so hard to remove the darn things. When Trojan Horses load themselves into the registry, they are near impossible to find without time and patience. The problems double when you have 20 million things installed on your computer. Everyone of those programs have a registry key, which allow them to be executed. Delete the key, and the program cannot run. A Trojan horse also works in this manner. The huge problem is finding the registry key in between all of the other hundreds of registry keys.
If you suspect a registry key might be the Trojan Horse's registry key, then i suggest consulting a professional, or if you can't get a hold of one, send me a message @
