[Optimus Prime]

A trojan is usually a virus that creates a "back-door" to your PC, to make it easier for other hackers to get in and mess around with your system real bad.

It's not as bad as a worm, as it spreads less easily, but can still be just as dangerous.

It may or may not have come from that site. Sometimes they are the result of e-mail or not having your firewall configured properly.

Well, actually, it's good news that your virus scanner caught the trojan that quickly. At least you know it's doing it's job.
