Trojan.Ransom.Gend

Viruses and worms

Hi again dear community,

just to be sure I used Malwarebytes to scan for some threats and found a trojan with the name pvexui.dat in my C:\ProgramData\ folder.
Put it in quarantine and thought that’s it, but then thought that it can not be a coincidence.

Some days ago I got a problem based on nearly the same thing:
http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=150112.0

So I am asking again for some help as I

  1. don’t know how to handle it.
  2. don’t know what is the real threat as it can’t be just a coincidence that the same trojan(with just another name) is in the same directory.
  3. don’t know what should be done.

I apologize for my rude request and hope you guys can help me out once more!
