So a update, deleted the files in the chest. Did the full scan with MBAM before I went to bed, and that was clean. Just doing a full Avast scan (has come back clean), and then I’ll do a full scan with Superantispyware (that was clean to)
(also my virus total link is still showing as clean???)
MBAM didn’t trigger the virus again with Avast, so I hope it should all come back clean!
Also I been getting a Adobe download warning with Avast lately (svchost.exe), It every-time there’s a update with flash etc though. So just a thought! Also I found a thread saying this virus is a well known false pos with Avast?
Really appreciate the help. I am careful online and use loads of software, but I guess. Sometimes you get caught out. I also use Comodo with Hips and Spyware Blaster
I’m also going to try Eset online scanner, disable avast shields and Comodo hips yeah?
Thanks Michael. I hate having a virus on my system, even if in chest. I just want rid and it sorted. I still have no idea how I caught it, as only used ebay and aol that day. And definitely wasn’t a dodgy email.
svchost.exe I have 10 processes on that, 2 is for network service, 4 is for local service, and 4 is for system. And they all say there host process for windows services!
I have also done a Trend Micro Housecall with avast shields disabled, and comodos hips disabled and that was normal to.
Thanks Michael. I hate having a virus on my system,
as said in my reply #7 you have a suspicious file ...... not malware yet

Everything seems ok since I deleted the file’s in the chest and scans are all clear! I just do quite a bit of banking etc. So get a bit paranoid when get alerts!
