    Hosting Trojan Horse Detection?

    I have a reseller hosting account in a non-porn business and I was wondering if there there a way to scan this server and websites hosted inside that server for Trojan Horses and Viruses and if found to remove them or if there is a company that has software that will allow me to do this? Every search I do to try to find a service that does this gives me results for personal computer virus protection?

    Thanks for any help!

      Uh, Flow, whoever you are - reseller hosting is like riding a bus.. You can't, you really can't do something like pop the hood and fiddle around. You have no right.

          OK, so what options do I have if I have a couple reports that one of my reseller accounts have been spreading a Trojan Horse? I have asked the hosting company to do a scan and the say the system if free of viruses but I think they might be lying as it has happened twice now.

              It could have occurred in the past, and the reports are still based on IP.

              I would move to another company. A bit drastic but the prices are usually quite similar, and you can move your stuff, then change DNS records and won't experience any interruption. Out of interest,what is the company in question../

                  They really have no reason to lie about it. It is not in any hosts best interest to just let a virus fly unabated.

                      In some cPanel I saw option "Virus Scan" , but never try to use that.

                          PPI recently became more popular so its very possible man. Alot of the exes are updated daily and designed specifically to avoid detection so scans won't pick them up....

                              lying might not be the best word, although if they said the system is "free of viruses" that might not be the best way to describe it either. They should have said, "our automated detection hasnt unconvered anything"

                                  Install clamav or any other anti virus solution for linux.
                                  Also you can improvise with downloading all files locally and if you have on your local computer let say nod32 it will detect trojan.

                                      For a reseller, that would be a good start .

                                      The only problem is if the site has an " include " in its page, delivering the virus/trojan/software this way ...
                                      I know that Asspimple is stoopid ... As he says, it is a FACT !

                                      But I can't figure out how he can breathe or type , at the same time ....

                                              If you have RoundCube capability you might want to delete it.

                                                  Well nod32 does detect includes as well,since it require more lines to serve trojan.
