Chances are you are not getting these through the firefox speed up simply because your not changing anything except a few values, nothing that can make you more pron to attacks. You most likley miss-read or got a hold of some bad software.

Are you referring to this thread?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And are you referring to this program?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

What virus scanner were you using?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Can you remember the exact location and name of the trojans? I've had a look around but can't seem to find anything. I'm sure there'd be plenty of info since Firefox is supposed to be so secure and all.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you are referring to the program I mentioned above, well I guess you should've followed the advice of Hannibal and I in that thread.
