Win32:Tibs-ALQ[Trj]

Viruses and worms
1

I posted a topic before concerning a different virus but now I’m having a problem with this other virus called Win32:Tibs-ALQ[trj]. Basically I’m getting a warning from avast while I’m doing a scan that this Trojan horse was found. But when I click the “move to chest” option I get this:

“There is not enough space on the disk
Cannot process “C:\Documents and Settings\Default User\Local Settings\Temp\WER2C8.tmp.dir00\firefox.exe.hdmp” file”

This is only the first one avast warns me about. When I continue I get more of them. I don’t know whether the infected files are important or not so I’m unsure if it’s safe to delete them. Anyone know anything about this virus and how I can get rid of it? I think I can repair them, so would I be better off doing that?

It’s appears to be crash dump file. When Firefox crashes, a crash dump file is created and can be detected by AVs (including avast!).

Upload the file to VirusTotal or VirScan and post the results.

You can delete that file.
Also, do you have that many files into Chest? You can increase the Chest size into avast settings.

Yeah there are quite a bit of stuff in the chest. >> I did try increasing the size but I guess I didn’t go high enough.

Old files could be deleted from Chest… I say, something older than two weeks. Housekeeping is good, you’ll get free disk space :wink:
