Hello everyone,

I have a problem with some malwaregen (that’s what avast is telling me)
I searched here in the forum and i tried some resolution procedures but they did’t work.

Avast is keeping telling me (every reboot same story) that some dangerous files were detected as virus and sent to the virus bin:
These are the files:
object: c:\Users\my username\Dropbox.dropbox.cache~065ccda7.tmp
infection: Win32:Malware-gen
action:
process: c:\Users\my username\AppData\Roaming\Dropbox\bin\Dropbox.exe

the other file il related to Autopico.exe in dropbox cache eather, but i could not find the alert message anymore.
always the same alerts, from 2 to 6, always these two.

here the logs

Did you set the following ?

AutoConfigURL: [S-1-5-21-1918630156-201485308-2057092424-1001] => hxxp://wpad.polimi.it/wpad.dat

I tried, so far no other alerts (a couple of reboots clean)
Thanks! I hope that it doesn’t come back since I tried that before
