i keep getting a virus warning from avast, the virus keeps creating c8l5f68z6.exe and sUddxsate.exe regularly. why cat avast just delete once and for all? i already tried boot time scan
What is the malware name given and what is the location the files are placed ?
If it keeps coming back, there is likely to be an undetected or hidden element to the infection that restores or downloads the file again. What is your firewall ?
If you haven’t already got this software (freeware), download, install, update and run it and report the findings (it should product a log file).
