Well as you see it detects all my files + windows files as a virus…
Avast deleted firefox,Winrar,Internet Explorer + ETC.
Q:How do you know it?
A:It all lays in chest
Q:How are you on internet then?
A:I am using my mac
Q:Do you hate that your computer is screwed?
A:Yes
Q:Can you give some more information?
A:Yes, I cant go on internet i got connected… i open firefox nothing happends… I try internet explorer it opens but when i navigate to this site or youtube then it says address not valid… i tryed making a webbrowser It got error cause of the gecko engine… I know all thats stuffs but when i open garena it doesnt navigate to site but it connects to the other players…
If I understood you correctly, you’re saying that avast
basically carved up your OS and dropped it all in the chest???
Ok, taking that at face value, because I have NEVER seen that before,
lets go into your virus chest, (maintenance tab, select virus chest), and lets look at
one of those files…rite clik on the firefox file, select properties, and read what it says about it.
Post that answer.
In a nutshell, without knowing your OS, version, ect…I would guess you got a bad install.
I would suggest restoring all the files from the chest, uninstalling avast, grabbing a fresh copy from avast.com and re-installing. I will post some uninstall instructions created by another user, SafeSurf.
Beyond this, I do not know what to say:
i tryed start all services on my computer
and it didnt work so i cant use internet
my OS is:Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit
Well as i can tell you it happend a bit bad things to my computer then i searched with avast and no viruses
and then my files got deleted… All the files i opened got deleted
and now i am trying system recovery but i just got the system recovery for the 1.6.2010
and thats 3 days since and then i am gonna try to unninstall avast to make the things not happend…
Well now i found a hidden recovery file and it was from 30.5.2010 and under
I hope it will work…
Cause i think i solved my own question…
I installed Bonjour to make my computer connect to my ipod
and it used avasts scanning dll to scan that the connections are secure
Well i tryed Safe Mode
and it didnt work…
Now i will try to start my computer right to system recover … I mean i dont start windows i just start system recover
Vitro or Virut - Reformat the system as this is a vicious file infector, Avast will dlete the files till the cows come home
Well, I'm afraid I have bad news for you.
You have been infected with a polymorphic file infector named Virut. This infection will spread to every executable file in your computer, and unfortunately the only cure for it is to Reformat and Reinstall.
Right now, the best thing you can do is to backup, preferably to CD, all your important data, documents, pictures, movies, and songs.
DO NOT backup any applications or installers and DO NOT backup any files with the following extensions:
[].exe
[].scr
[].htm
[].html
[].xml
[].zip
[].rar
[].doc
[].jpg
[].pdf
For more information on Virut, and why you need to reformat, have a read of miekiemoes blog here.

Once you have reformatted and reinstalled Windows, have a look at this page for some useful tips on staying clean, along with links to some freeware to help.
To find out more information about how you may have got infected in the first place, you can read this article.
If I’m reading this string correctly, you have a relatively new computer that came with Windows 7 pre-installed. At the first startup, you were prompted to burn emergency recovery CD/DVD for just such a situation as you are in now. These discs were to allow you to reformat and return your computer to the fresh, factory state.
If you did not burn the discs as prompted, you may be screwed. The only backup plan may be to contact your computer manufacturer and order a restore DVD to return your machine to factory original.
