Win32:Small-JUB [Trj] (in System Volume Information/ Restore

[system]

Thanks DavidR.
I sent the file but got this minor error.
It did say it was sent.
I tried to let CClneaner delete it, even added it to the include folder but didn’t
work, And neityer did internet options and deleteing temp files.
it says Can’t find the file, but I did manually.

Program cannot delete the following file: C:\DOCUME~1\DADSGE~1\LOCALS~1\Temp_avast4_\unp263461217.tmp
—>Description: The system cannot find the file specified

[DavidR]

The files unpxxxxxxx.tmp in the avast4 folder is where avast unpacks archive files to be scanned and they are usually cleared when the scan is complete. So yes there is a strong likelihood that it won’t be there.

Yea it was left behind, I had to delete manually.

Hi there David, I do not have that choice when I right click the “A” Icon.
Also I did upload that File 00000005 from the chest to VirusTotal, but didn’t come up with anything I do have the results if you want to see them.
But ofcourse IF it’s encrypted then that might explain the nothing results ?

It is there (see image) if you are using avast 4.8.1169, what version are you using ?

I can assure you that the avast chest being a protected area, nothing will go up there, all you will see is a 0 byte size file, no update.

Hey DavidR.
It must not be there when you have it updated from an ealier version,
OR maybe it’s just because of the free version, OR maybe it’s an error.
Mine looks like the 2 pics here.

I have found that to see that it as an option to edit the avast4.ini file is the reason it shows in my menu.

You need to put this line in the [AAVM] section of the avast4.ini file, ShowChestInMenu=1 and before the next section [MailScanner]. It doesn’t have to be at the start directly after the [AAVM] tag just between the [AAVM] and the next section tag, see example below.

[AAVM] ShowChestInMenu=1 : other entries in section : other entries in section : other entries in section [MailScanner]

If you don’t want to do that you can create a desktop shortcut to ashChest.exe, which is what I did before this option to add the entry to the avast4.ini was allowed. Note: with the self-defence you will be prompted when you try to save any changes you have made.

Yes sir, worked perfect thank you.

So IF I delete from with in the chect or quarantine of Avast!, will it delete it for sure ?
and if I do it that way I will still have my Restores ? it will not delete them
all I hope ?
and I won’t have to create new ones.
Or maybe it’s better if I delete ALL my restores without using AVAST, and create a new one afterwards…

There is no rush to delete anything from the chest, a protected area where it can do no harm. Anything that you send to the chest you should leave there for a few weeks. If after that time you have suffered no adverse effects from moving these to the chest, scan them again (inside the chest) and if they are still detected as viruses, delete them.

Once deleted from the chest it is history, gone, which is why there is no rush.

If a restore point has been moved to the chest it no longer exists in the systeme volume information folder, so that particular restore point is gone but avast only takes the infected restore point no others.

Personally I don’t have a great deal of confidence in system restore as it isn’t infallible and results archived may not be as you expect as it isn’t a backup function as it doesn’t cover everything. It can also take up vary amounts of disk space (check it for yourself) so it wouldn’t hurt to periodically clear it out by creating a new restore point and removing old ones. Obviously before you do this you have to ensure that your system is functioning correctly and is clean.

Create Clean Restore Point - Clear old Restore Points.

Now you are clear of infection create a clean System Restore point:

1. Click Start, All Programs, Accessories, System tools, System Restore.
2. In the pop-up that appears fill in the radio button to Create a Restore Point
3. Click NEXT
4. Enter a useful name that you will remember if you need to find this again (Clean Restore Point)
5. Click CREATE

You now have a clean restore point, you should clear the old ones:

1. Click Start, All Programs, Accessories, System tools, Disk Clean Up
2. Click OK on the C: drive
3. Click the More Options tab
4. In the System Restore section click the Clean Up button
