Thanx
Check out the resources that the article pointed you to.
I have removed this trojan before, but it keeps coming back and I have to keep removing it. What I would like to know is where does it come from, what is the source? If I can get the source I can probably get rid of it all together.

any good sites available to help ”’
Thanks
Did you check out the links in the article at the top of the page you just commented on?
I have found a way to remove keenval virus, the only problem is after a while it might come back, because I think that it might be coming from a website or some other source. but here is how I removed it: turn off system restore, reboot your computer and then turn system restore back on and then run your virus program. It should be gone after that. Hope it works:)
What exactly does it do?? Its a bit of a bind so I would love to know what risk is involved.

Symantec seems to have released a removal tool for this.
