    I'll leave other answers to the original poster.
    TDS might be Trojan Defence Suite (as he said he detected a trojan). That is
    "anti-trojan" program which works pretty similar as anti-virus programs (has
    its own database of known signatures and supports some level of heuristic
    scanning, which can lead to lot of false-positives).
