WebHost Manager User Manual 

Scan for Trojan Horses 

Overview 

WebHost Manager includes a function that enables you to scan your server for 

Trojan Horses. A Trojan Horse is a malicious, security breaking program that is 

disguised as something benign, such as a directory list, archive, or game. Like all 

viruses Trojan Horses can hide inside files for long periods of time. 

NOTE: All files found during this search are only suspected Trojan Horses. This 

scan only denotes the possibility of a virus in the file.
