so i downloaded something from a “friend” it was meant to be a game, i ran the .exe, nothing opened, then suddenly 20 pages of porn flashed up and it tried to reboot my computer, it succeeded
upon rebooting my windows tried to update, norton quickly flashed up and said it was un-trust worthy so i stopped it from running (i hope)
now upon booting my computer this .bat runs, and my computer is very slow now, on booting it today there was a black screen for around 30 seconds, i can not find this .exe in its directory which it is showing on the title of the batch file (See image below)
all i can remember about the file was that it it came as a .zip and inside that it had a:
RunClient.exe
ReadMe.txt
Javazoom (folder)
i know nothing about this and avast cant detect the file and neither can norton, HELP ME PLEASE :-[
if you still have the zip, upload it to www.virustotal.com and test with 40+ malware scanners ( this you should have done before you run the exe )
when you have the result, copy the URL in the address bar and post it here for us to see
i know nothing about this and avast cant detect the file and neither can norton,
doe this mean you have avast and Norton installed ?

yes, but ive been using avast since the virus, a freind told me to get avast to try to get rid of it
ok, i have removed the files via malware bytes, and there are 8 new updates for windows 7, 4 security, 1 for windows 7 and a few other
do you recomend installing theese, as they might be part of the virus im not too sure
There are Windows updates up right now, I have a few to apply myself.
They are probably legit, but I would wait till you get the system scrubbed before you try to finish them, just in case the malware interferes somehow. I’m probably just being over-cautious, but you never know.
Thanks everyone, gunna un-install norton, do a full system scan with avast, then uninstall then reinstall norton, full system scan, then do updates thanks everyone
