Yesterday, a pop up from Avast appeared after I downloaded a torrent file and opened it to start downloading it using utorrent (a fansub OAV).
As Avast blocked an infection, I didn’t start the torrent download and deleted the file directly.
However, I always got the Avast message everytime I launch utorrent (screenshot in attachment).
I did a quick scan using malwarebyte which detected some problems which were solved and then I rebooted my computer. (But I always had the avast detection)
I dowloaded adwcleaner and it did detect some problems which were removed successfully (said the logs) but the problem is always remaining.
So I followed instructions of essexboy about OTL and TDSSKiller (given in this post, as the problem is exactly the same) and attached the reports to this post.
I also analysed the file utorrent.exe with avast and trojan remover and it said that this is clean :s
Hope you’ll be able to help me.
Thanks in advance !

@Steven : I updated AVAST right after I finished following essexboy’s instructions in the other post.
I thought avast was updating automatically but i certainly unabled auto update before.
So now Avast is up to date ( version 2014…0.2013). I did another quick scan and nothing was found.
@Essexboy : Yes the starting file is Utorrent
I ran u torrent 3 times today and let it run. Good news ! No avast pop up whereas I did nothing more than yesterday. So for the moment, problem solved (don’t know how).
