I think I need a help because of a problem: I have installed the last version of Avast! home & the last VPS version file on my friend PC (he recently had the KAV, that was out of date, and no registration key file).
After rebooting the PC my friend start an on-demand Avast scanner of his hard drive. Avast found a hundreds of different trojans and dialers, which I sent to a Virus Chest. Is it safe to use this option in this case?
Thankyou for your support.
Sure,Chest is just another name for Quarantine. Files there are quarantined and they can’t harm your PC anymore.
Hundreds? Sounds like it is time for a fresh installation of the OS.
Halio avatar2005,
Did your friend forget about a Firewall Solution. Well without a Firewall installed (there are good free Firewall programs) going on the Internet is like playing Ukrainian Roulette with an MKM. I agree with Eddy that on a compromised system like that a fresh re-install on a reformatted disk is the best option. You can never trust such a “twardiel” again. I very muchg like to watch my system with System Safety Monitor, a free program from http://maxcomputing.narod.ru/ with free licence until December this year and then you can renew the program “gratis”, “za darmo”.
pozdrawiam,

Thankyou oncemore for help!
