Help, evidently I have a JS-Packed-D in my system according to Avast :-[
Avast suggested I ‘Move it to Chest’ so I did. Would folks have any recommendations on what I need to do next?
Thanks a million and happy Friday!!

What is the infected file name, where was it found e.g. (C:\windows\system32\infected-file-name.xxx) ?
Check the avast! Log Viewer (right click the avast ‘a’ icon), Warning section, this contains information on all avast detections.
first leave it in the chest till investigations are completed
lots of different names for this one
see
http://virscan.org/report/32c3908f082e77d2a8eeadec26c26f87.html
for examples
can you create a folder called suspicious
somewhere handy like C:\suspicious
and export-copy the file (s) from the chest there
you can "exclude C:\suspicious from avast on access scanner
then go to “virustotal”
and navigate to your new folder and upload the files
if you have not excluded you will have to pause avast
post the link to the results back to this thread
I’d also run a scan with Malware bytes Anti malware
put a check next to any hits and then click Remove Checked a backup will be made
post the log
Personally I would suggest waiting for feedback from the original poster before giving any cleansing advice, when it can be better targeted.
I tend to agree with you DavidR
but I consider one AV and one AM/AS scan to be a minimum for diagnosis
I draw the line for HJT, Smitfraud, Combo, HDFIX LPSfix, etc prior to a thorough investigation
and I like to look at HJT before recommending one of the heavy duty tools mentioned- especially combofix
