JS:fakeAV-K[Trj]

Avast Free Antivirus / Premium Security
1

Hello to all …
I was visiting sport’s site, and when I
opened a connection Avast has detected
JS:fakeAV-K [Trj] in the cache of Mozilla Firefox.
Unfortunately,I had very scare,the first time I clicked “ok” button,the second time I clicked “on moves to the Trash,” and the file was removed to the Trash.

  1. I am disconnected from the internet (I’m writing all of you from another PC).
  2. I cleaned the history of Mozilla Firefox.
  3. I cleaned the temp files.
  4. I saved some documents.
  5. I closed Mozilla Firefox:
    I have “Better Security”,plugin of Mozilla firefox,for clean up the dangerous cookies.Subsequently,I closed
    Mozilla,and is appeared a window where there was written that there was a cookie to be deleted.
    When I clicked “OK” to delete the cookie, Avast has reported,for one second,that there was a trojan, but then the window disappeared immediatly.
    I have not rebooted the PC.
    Now I’m doing scans …
    What should happen to my PC?
    My PC is in danger?
    When the scan will be finished,I will download the plugin for to clean up the cache …
    Hello to all …
    Thanks for your probable help.
    Thanks

Don’t worry, you did the best move. You are 99.9% safe since you allowed avast to delete the file. Just don’t hesitate to ask if anything odd happens.

Next time, send file to Chest. It’s safer then direct deleting it as you can further analyze it :wink:
