A Trojan is a type of malware that is designed to gain access to your computer without your knowledge. Unlike most viruses and worms, Trojans do not replicate themselves but they can be just as destructive. They are often disguised as legitimate software, such as executable files or downloads. Once on your computer, a Trojan can do anything from stealing data or tracking keystrokes to deleting important system files and corrupting databases.
