Virus scan finds trojan again

I've had this new Dell laptop with Vista Home premium for a few months now.
Every week when I run my virus scan it finds a trojan this last one was called cutwail, last week it was artemis B3E2412C7. Every now and then I will get a pop up teling me that McAfee has detected a trojan and it has destroyed it. I have two other PCs. one with windows XP and the other with windows 7 (an upgrade from Vista ) both desktops. I have never had any viruses on either desktops I scan all three pc's every week and I also run Ad-Aware. This laptop seems to be susceptable to viruses. I wonder why? I have checked my security, that is fine.

If it is finding them and removing them, then all is well.

May I suggest adding:

1. Download SUPERAntiSpyware Free for Home Users:
http://www.superantispyware.com/

2. Download Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware: http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php to your desktop.

The free version of both is fine.

McAfee, most of us consider to be worse than the virus it is suppose to keep out.

Thanks for the reply and suggestions.. have not had a chance to try them yet. But why do you think I get these viruses only on my Laptop and not on my desktops?

It could any number of reason, that is why I posted teh link.

DO NOT be surprised it they find stuff that what you have misses.

braynch--Even the best antimalware programs might leave bits and pieces behind--enough to reactivate the malware.
Assuming you are not continually revisiting the site which is giving you the trojan, run HiJackThis and post the log in the HJT Logfiles forum. HJT's strength is finding the bits and pieces.
