Check the information on the first post of this thread under Virus/Worms for you to check your machine for malware: http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=53253.0.

Follow the directions of obtaining an MBAM log (make sure you update MBAM first) and the OTL logs (save them as ANSI), and aswMBR log. Post the logs as an attachment (Additional Options > Attach > Post).

Once your informatation is posted, we will review it and if necessary refer you to one of our malware removal specialists. Thank you.
