win32:trojan-gen.(upx!)

Help. This little guy keeps popping up even after I have put it in the chest and or deleted it,
The file name is
C:\alexeyman.chm\d_alexeyman.exe.
The VPS is 0447-0
I have seen other win32:trojen-gen on the forum but none of them have ended in (upx!)
Also when I try to delete the message error occured during file deleting.
I am a little new to this but any help would be appreciated.
Thank You

First make sure your avast is upto date and then if your on Win NT/XP/2000 try doing a boot time scan with avast, that should take care of it.

Thank You Lee for such a quick response. As I said I am really new at this and I am sorry if this sounds like a very silly question. But what is a “Boot Time Scan” Also I did check and I am up to date with Avast and every thing else on this machine including Spybot and Adaware.
Again Thank You

Hi,
I have just found and run the boot scan and that that little guy is still there. win32:trojen-gen.(upx!) Is there any thing else that I can do about it?
Thank You,
Karyn

Hi Karyn,

  • reboot to SafeMode (repeatedly press F8 while booting), then Run a thorough scan with avast, included archive Scanning, and MOVE the file to avast chest

if this doesn’t help, please work through the link “VirusRemoval” below in my sig. and

  • post a hijackthis-Log here
  • report what OnlineScanners have to say on the file, e.g. KAV & RAV
    :wink:
