Do you have a possible infected file with it or you’re just concerned about a possible problem?
Probably yes, it’s on the virus database.

yeah i just concerned about it, im glad now that avast has it in the database. thanks for your replay

You’re welcome. Feel free to come back any time you need help or just to change experiences 8)

Whilst avast probably has a number of signatures for this trojan small, there are many variants but that shouldn’t be any worry if you have a backup and recovery strategy in place.

You should be backing up ‘regularly’ any data that you don’t want to lose, so if the worst comes to the worst you have a back-up. You could password protect your media folder, etc. that might make it harder for malware to erase files in a password protected folder.
