Hi,
When I downloaded generic downloader from miniclip.com, I also got
Trojan-Backdoor-Retro64. My Spybot found the program and demaged it. I later
deleted it. Spybot and Aol do not pick up any threats now but my Spy Sweeper
still does and since this is free version, it does not remowe this trojan. Is
there any free way to remove this trojan? Is it still dangerous?
Your advice will be highly appreciated.

You should also use your antivirus program to scan for and remove Trojans
being sure to use the latest updates from your publishers website and also
scan with your programs in Safe Mode. It also helps to search Google for any
malware you find and you often will find a tool or specific instructions on
how to remove the malware. --- Steve

When all else fails, HijackThis v1.99.1
(http://aumha.net/downloads/hijackthis.zip) is the preferred tool to use.
It will help you to both identify and remove any hijackware/spyware. **Post
