Please advise thank you in advance.

Hi all,

I am asking for some help and advice please, any help and advice will be greatly welcomed and received thank you in advance :slight_smile:

I ran a full system scan several times and each time it has come up saying THREAT DETECTED This is the only information I can give File name C:/Windows/…/System Severity High Status Threat: Win32:Agent-APHJ… Action Moved to chest Result Error: The process cannot access the the file because it is being used by another process (32)
This threat is being detected by the File System Shield.

I have done boot time scans and at the end of each boot time scan it says number of infected files 0

I am using avast free antivirus 8.0.1489

when you see the scan result… put your mouse pointer on the vertical bar just on front of severity and dragg sideways… the file path column should now open up so you see the full file path

take a screenshot and attach here…

Hi Pondus, I hope you are well?

Thank you for your reply I really appreciate it it, I tried to take a screenshot but for some reason the screenshot is blurred and not visible and unreadable.
Sorry I did try and upload a screenshot but I have failed.
I can tell you a bit more though, under the file name section which I dragged sideways I can see a bit more information which is C:/Windows/System32/config/system.
Unfortunately this is all the information the scan logs is giving me.

if you want the removal experts to have a look inside…

follow guide here http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=53253.0 and attach the requsted logs … not copy and paste

run in order listed
AdwCleaner / Malwarebytes / OTL / aswMBR

when done removal experts will be notified and check the logs for infections, and remove them if any is found
when finish he will remove the tools used
