Another great free security software is Sentinel. Here is a small excerpt from their web site.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

What is Sentinel?
Sentinel is the result of our frustration over sneaky viruses and trojans. This program will scan your computer for all loaded applications, and has an advanced Integrity Checker that will validate your System files. This program is very simple and easy to use, and if used correctly, you should be able to pinpoint and terminate malicious viruses, before they cause serious damage.

Check out the Sentinel 2.0 Page by clicking here.

Features:

Auto-Load
Sentinel can scan system files at startup, and then automatically scan them for viruses

Integrity Checker
Extremely quick CRC32 Algorythim to scan your valuable system files. If any file is even slightly modified, Sentinel will notify you.

This would be a fine addition to a firewall.....trojan scanner.

here another program that i use.. 'Filechecker'

The Purpose of FileChecker:
-To watch important system files for changes, modifications, or tampering (by malicious programs).
-To watch Anti-Virus program files, Anti-Trojan program files, anti-spyware program files, firewall files, etc. for tampering by rogue programs, and to notify if such action takes place.
-Now, FileChecker can log these events to the NT event log, and can run as a Windows service (for greater security).
