Hello every one!
Something really “strange” (if you want to call it like that) is happening with my MP3 files (and apparently just at one folder), they have being changing the name of the file “automatically” and RANDOMLY.
For example I had: Artist - NameOfTheSong.mp3, and two or 3 days after it just changes to NHJH.mp3, this name is randomly given, is not that exact name, it just changes the name for 4 capital letters could be GHTY.mp3 or SYTR.mp3, totally random, no numbers just letters.
I have being searching without success about this matter, the first (and only) thing that comes to my mind is a malware which is doing this, totally annoying because its almost impossible to rename back again all the files, and every time is doing it more and more quickly. I already lost around 2000 files because of this.
Avast is doing a GREAT job since the first time I used like 6 years ago, but now I’m not sure if I can remove malware (like this one) with Avast.
I’ll appreciate any help or comment about this.
Thanks in advance!
If you feel something is amiss here, by all means use the following steps to have a malware expert come in and help you fix your problems: http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=53253.0 Run these four programs only for the first pass-through: AdwCleaner, Malwarebytes, OTL, and aswMBR.exe.

Sorry if your call for help seemed to get lost in the shuffle a little bit here.
