Hello,
Avast found a virus called “win32:DH” (rated high) on 15/02/17, I had not noticed this, it was not automatically moved or dealt with, so has only manually been put in the chest today. The subsequent quick scans (16th-20th, daily) have all been fine.
Searched this forum and found a German thread, which seemed to list a similar thing as a false positive I am, however relying on my rather poor German and Google translation…
The file the virus is associated with looks like an old malwarebytes setup file, last changed in 2015, which seems a bit odd? I’ve check my malwarebytes log and the two programs were not running at the same time- as I understand it, they might clash? My computer was recently serviced, so it’s unlikely there would be malware from that long ago, unless I’m misunderstanding the “last changed” column.
Ran Malwarebytes normally, then in safe mode, nothing detected. Boot time scan with avast running, at 4% this may take some time to complete.
After that will do a full scan with avast, this will probably take a few hours to complete.
CPU around 2-10% when idle (normal for my system)
Memory around 13%, again this is normal
I struggled to find information for win32:DH, there was some for win32/DH and various versions, which might be the same sort of thing?
I’m tempted to change login details, passwords etc. and I have used a debit card online in the past few days, so may need to contact my bank? Although, have seen no odd activity as of yet.
I’ve disconnect my laptop to be on the safe side- writing this from a tablet.
I’m somewhat computer literate, but obviously not totally on the ball. Any insights or advice would be greatly appreciated
