Some good news…
After having WinXPPro “dispose” of the swap file’s contents, the Win32:Crypto “infection” disappeared. avast! scans at boot-up showed up clean, as did the Windows avast! scan.
To be safe, I uninstalled avast! and ran a copy of Panda Platinum 7 AntiVirus: the system was free of all pests except for a copy of Happy.exe buried in an “ancient” e-mail.
Now that I’m convinced that my system’s virus-free, I’d still like a note from the avast! guys to explain where and how the Win32:Crypto bug crept in? ???
Still an avast! believer,
