Viruses and worms
1

Hi Guys…

Well basically i use avast as my screen saver and whilst it was on screen saver it detected a virus so i ran the “start avast anti virus”
and came to find that my pc is fully infected with all sorts. One in particular kept on re appearing as i moved it to chest which you can see from my attached items(c:\system volume information), eventually i clicked “repair all” and that seemed to work (was that a good idea??). But there were other viruses that were there and another that nothing could be done about (was asked to rename it and so on but i am not sure what to do).

If someone could explain to me why all of a sudden these viruses have attacked me and secondly what i should do about it?

Thank you all for your time…

tvDebug is a Zone alarm file.

To clean up System Restore, first create a clean System Restore point, then delete all older restore points.

The Hotmail thing might have been something from MSN?

The .CHK files I think are innocent.
