I have this virus and its really doing my head in, avast recognises it, but when i delete it, it just comes back again, it must have some kind of source file to regenerate its self or something. i tried to find out about the virus using google, but there is no information on it at all bar one german site and the avast site. neither of which are helpful at all. i have tried all the online scanners, which do not find it, (panda, trend micro, rav, bit defender etc…) any help in this would be very helpful. sorry if this has been covered b4 in this forum but im really battling with it. I dont know if this helps but ive also done a hijack this log:
