Hi,
we need the full paths and filenames + the corresponding virus names
(see avasts report/logfile)

some sound like Spy/Ad-Ware

run spybot, ad-aware, cwshredder (links in the forum or per google)


General procedure:

what WIN do you have ?
Where exactly was the infected File found (full pathname and filename) ?

test the file with OnlineScanners e.g. from TrendMicro & Kaspersky to get a more specific name
(you need to temporarily disable AV-Resident Shields/Monitors to be able to scan the file online)

-remove the Virus/Malware and it’s system modifications according to VirusInfos from Avast, VGREP, TrendMicro, Kaspersky; you might also try searching for the virus name or filename with google

general removal procedure:

  • kill respective Backdoor/Trojan process with task manager
  • search for the file/process names in the registry; remove the malware’s startup entries in the registry
  • disinfect or (if disinfection is not possible) delete the file; this may be possible only after a reboot

-Secure your system (change passwords, secure shares, install patches/updates for WIN, IE etc…)
-scan your whole system with updated avast and maybe a 2nd scanner ,e.g. TrendMicro to check whether your PC is clean :wink:
