Hi all!
I tell you now that my English is not so good .
For several days (3-4 ) when I turn on the computer over 4-5 minutes I get from avast a notice how tells that an infection was blocked.After 4-5 seconds again I receive a notification that blocked another infection.I use Malawarebytes for a while and of course, I receive from it a notfication which tells me that the infection was detected and blocked.
Then there is an error from Windows about MsAudioEngine.exe : "MsAudioEng has stopped working… " .
I opened one of the avast where notices are written as follows:
Infection blocked.
URL: http://dl.terabits.info/run/taskhost.exe
Infection : FileRepMetagen [ Malware ]
Process : C : \ Windows \ MsAudioEng.exe .
My question is :
Can you help me get rid of this infection ? I have not given importance but began to worry that appears every time I turn on the computer.
Thanks in advance !

That is a good detection as it is trying to run from the downloads folder
