This morning 1/10/11 I ran a bootscan using Avast version 5.0.677 after getting a blue screen and some dump error. It did find 3 virus,
1 - was able to move to chest which was Office.exe file. Win32malware-gen
2 - hiberfil.sys - Error: the process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process Win32DNSCharger
3 -appears to bea temp file of the 1st virus listed above, avast would not move it to chest during scan because it said it was a Window file, so I selected to ignore and tried to move chest after bootscan was complete, then got this message: Error: There is not enough space on disk.
Later that day I ran another scan (normal scan using Avast), it found 11 virus (all 11 seems to be files that originated last year around May 2010): appear to all be music files; 3 it moved to chest; other 8, indicates Error: There is not enough space on disk?
I had a very bad virus about 1 year ago, but thanks to Essexboy he was able to work with me and clear this up. Can I please get some assistance with this again. I have been running daily scan, but until the other day “no virus found”. Please help me
for a second opinion, ceck your comp for malware with this
Malwarebytes Anti-Malware 1.50.1 http://filehippo.com/download_malwarebytes_anti_malware/
always update before scanning so you have latest database
click the remove selected button to quarantine anything found
report back the result and post the scan log here
Ok latest version was installed after I sent previous post, have current version now. Also I should have mentioned I have malwarebytes already installed from last year when I caught a virus. I ran a full scan yesterday, only thing it found was something that was already quarantined, see following:

I ran another bootscan last night, it says No virus found now? So did Avast move them to chest eventhough it gave error messages? When I turned the computer back on I did get a message saying “system recovered from a serious problem”, maybe virus was in trash bin? or dump or archive file?
