I recently downloaded avast and I found the following viruses…
Win32.Trojan-gen
JS.gummy
and
Win95.Matyas
Win32.Kuang2
For the Trojan-gen I turned off system restore, rebooted in safe mode ran Avast and I could not repair or move the files to the chest so I deleted them.
I looked up information on the gummy virus and I couldnt find anything useful for removal (however it did not show up in the virus scan when I ran it again
the matyas virus I managed to remove and the kuang2 I guess is removed cause it didnt show up in the scan.
My question now is that if my computer goes idle to where the system screen saver pops up, theres noway to get onto the computer without shutting it down by the power switch. And its been freezing a lot.
I ran ad-aware and it found nothing. I also looked up hijack this and downloaded it although I’m not registered so I cant remove what it found but I dont know if its safe to remove them.
heres what it found…
