But i suggest is to install a strong firewall, so that any intrusion incoming to your computer will be automatically blocked and alerted to you.

i like webroot spy sweeper and its not that expensive
a trojan is basically a really mean virus, i had acouple on my old computer and they can really screw you over, you may need to scrape or get a new harddrive
trojans all together are basically things to slow your computer down, you get them from some websites or downloading torrents, if you use things live vuse for your music (which are illegal) you are very likely to download a virus.
spyware also slows your computer down but its worst effect is that with it people can access almost anything you put into your computer
If your computer has been accessing the Internet unprotected it is infected.
Spyware has surpassed viruses as the #1 threat to identity theft and without protection your Internet activities are never private.
To get rid of spyware and keep your computer clean you can use an antispyware or even more.
