After computer scanned last nite, it came up with the malware-gen. I moved it to the virus chest. Today I decided to scan again and it detected the threat again, I then moved it to the virus chest again. Is there something elase that I should be doing, and is this a serious problem? I have a very old computer running windows xp. I do not use internet explorer for searches, I have google chrome. Any feedback is appreciated.

Thank you
