Avast detected this on a thumb drive on my laptop, I’m currently trying Immunet protect 3.0 with Avast
on the laptop, both detected this and I moved to chest, ran boot scan and found nothing, so I think
my laptop is safe. The thumb drive is from wifes school where she teaches, she says the school is
always having malware issues. They use Sophos on all computers.
Sure wish they would let me put Avast on there!
Hello sooners.
If you want to check your system of malware then do the following:
Download DDS and save it to your Desktop from here:
http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/sUBs/dds.scr
Double click dds.scr to run the tool.
* When done, DDS will open two (2) logs:
1. DDS.txt
2. Attach.txt
Save both reports to your desktop. Attach DDS.txt back to topic.
…
If you want to protect your computer from infections that are transmitted over USB,
you may help your Antivirus with MCShield program.
The recommendation that you install this program is becouse it will prevent infection by computer via USB flash drive, mobile phone or any memory card.
And not only will prevent infection, but will immediately clean Memory card or external HDD
I trust the boot scan and malwarebytes. Thanks though
