After scanning with Avast v4.8 yesterday it detected this Win32:WinSpy-CK [trj] in D:\pagefile.sys. I have tried to remove it & move to chest but cannot. I am using windows vista. Should i schedule a boot time scan & remove it then or is there any other method. Your help is very much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Is this Win32:WinSpy-CK [trj] in D:\pagefile.sys a false alarm cause i want to make sure if it is a nasty trojan in my pc. If it is a trojan then i would like some recommendation in getting rid of it. Thank you.
pagefile.sys is a temporary file. Seems a false positive detection in it.
To be sure you’re clean, I suggest:
Clean your temporary files.
Schedule a boot time scanning with avast with archive scanning turned on. If avast does not detect it, you can try DrWeb CureIT! instead.
Use SUPERantispyware, MBAM or Spyware Terminator to scan for spywares and trojans. If any infection is detected, better and safer is send the file to Quarantine than to simple delete than.
