What was the context of this alert, e.g. what were you doing when it alerted ?
Do you mean this alert Script:SNH-gen[Trj] ?
If it is an alert whilst browsing Avast should have blocked access to the site and prevent your getting infected.
Anyways wait for a qualified malware remover to arrive in this thread and assist you with cleansing if need be.
