Introduction
============

If you cruise the internet or send and receive e-mail,
you can't afford to be without The Cleaner!  One of the
latest hazards to hit the net are "Trojan Horses" --
destructive programs that masquerade as benign
applications.  The term comes from a story in Homer's 
Iliad, in which the Greeks give a giant wooden horse
to their foes, the Trojans, ostensibly as a peace
offering. But after the Trojans drag the horse inside
their city walls, Greek soldiers sneak out of the
horse's hollow belly and open the city gates, allowing
their compatriots to pour in and capture Troy.


What Trojans Can Do To Your System...
Unlike viruses, Trojan Horses do not replicate themselves,
but they can be just as destructive.  One of the most
insidious types of Trojan is a program that claims to rid
your computer of viruses but instead introduces viruses
onto your computer.  Another is the infamous "Back Orifice."
As reported on ZD-Net, this trojan allows others on the
internet to gain access to your computer and search and
manipulate your hard-drive.  


How The Cleaner Protects Your System ...
The Cleaner searches your hard drive cleans it of all known
Trojans.  Using a unique patent-pending technology, The Cleaner
compares each file against a list of all know Trojans.  You
can scan your entire system or just one file.  The program
also allows you to periodically update your Trojan database
file to keep it current with the latest research.  If you're
going to expose your system to the dangers of the internet,
keep it clean with The Cleaner!
