is this a serious question??? No one with sense would click on your link there. If your AV is telling you it is infected with a trojan, it probably is. If you don't have AV and you are being told it is infected with a Trojan than you probably have more problems than a trojan.Oh yeah, FYI dw.com.com is not a valid domain.

... Anybody who's got half a brain will know not to click that link. Also, it says "redir" right after the domain... What could it mean?

Its a compressed file, in it is bat_to_exe_convertor.exe and help.chm.

If hes being told there is a trojan it could be that the very thing that is reporting a trojan is the actual trojan

OR, it only happens when he compiles them, maybe hes somehow made a batch file that the computer recognizes as a trojan..
