Viruses and worms

I’m using avast free for more than a year now, no problems so far.
Got ‘virus’ in weekly scan:a few favorits were moved to virus chest, identified as “ini:shortcut-inf [trj]”. At list one of them is more then 1 year old, why suddenly ??

Hi piniy,

Could be a FP, so upload these files to Virustotal for an additional scan. If only avast and Gdata flag it for instance that makes it all more the likely for it to be a FP. Else it could be adware and should be cleansed using for instance a free program like Super Anti Spyware, download from here http://www.superantispyware.com/downloadfile.html?productid=SUPERANTISPYWAREFREE and do a quick scan. Additionally you could scan with MBAM: download from here: http://majorgeeks.com/downloadget.php?id=5756&file=15&evp=693ee0b20204960edfd909666f809b26 and scan with this anti-malware software also,
הכל יהיה בסדר
