I noticed my computer running very slow. So I scanned it with avast. It found nothing. I then ran a scan at boot that found JS: Agent - die Trj. It was in my Firefox settings. I am wondering if there is a way to tell when the infection happened. I just made a backup of my hard disk with macrium 2 days ago and I want to know if it and or my hard drive is infected. Also is there a way to see what the Trojan did or if it was able to install malware or copy files?
I am totally glad you are trying to help me fix this issue. But can you please let me know if there is a way to see what was accessed if anything. Do I need to change all of my passwords? I never type them in I used a password utility. I do type my master password in that. Also were my files messed with?
The computer its self is going to get wiped and reinstalled either with my backup or my installation disc.
I doubt that the system will need to be wiped. Essexboy has almost resolved all issue realting to Trojans/Viruses without the need for wiping the HDD clean.
Do I need to change all of my passwords?
It never hurts to change your passwords every month or so. It’ll only help you. So, yes.
There will be several warnings, OK them all and the system will reboot on completion of the analysis
After the reboot look in the folder AVZ4 on your desktop
Open the LOG folder
Place the zip file in your dropbox public folder and post the sharing link in your next post KL_syscure.zip
Well I thank all of you for your help but my computer crashed and I have to get my computer up and running because I have homework due tomorrow. So i am just going to re-image my drive and hope the issue happened after my backup was done. I assume I can just use Avast and Malware bytes to do a scan of the fresh install and find anything that may be an issue. Would you guys do anything else? I would have liked to resolve this issue with out the wipe but my homework can not wait.
