I ran a boot scan that showed several files infected with java agent virus. After reading here I’ve been down the checklist of various cleaners. Attached are my logs. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
what was the location of the files?.. you may attach a screenshot of the scan result
did avast move them to chest?
malware removers are notified
I chose the delete all after deleting one at a time a few times. I really can’t recall exactly where the files were located. I feel like a numskull for not paying more attention now.
Generally a good clean of your temporary files will remove those… Are you experiencing any problems ?

After a little digging I found the following log from the boot scan.
They are in the Java cache by the look of it… Run the OTL fix and it will clear all the caches
I ran the fix and a quick scan. OTL log attached.
they are all listed as exploits.
If you are the type that keep your software updated, like browsers and java, then you are dobbel protected against exploits, so even if avast did not detect them they may not work if you have latest patched versions
How is the computer behaving ? As it looks clean but your Java is old
I noticed over the last few days that it started taking windows longer and longer to get up and running. I’m still not sure if that was related to this or not but it appears to be back to normal now. I also updated Java to version 7.0.21 now.
The emptying of temporary files may have helped, a disc defragment would probably not go amiss
Run OTL and press the cleanup button to remove it
Run AdwCleaner and press uninstall
Delete AswMbr from the desktop
