My daughters computer has become infected with this virus. I have the most current version of Avast and it blocks it however a boot scan doesn’t find or remove it. I have also tried the most current malwarebytes with no luck. I can’t seem to find any information about this virus that’s anywhere near current nor any removal tool/technique that works for Win 8.1
I’m stuck with this one!
Any thoughts or help would be GREATLY WELCOMED (and APPRECIATED!)
