Guess nobody is interested in our little problem… :-\
Hi,
pause avast shield(s) and just delete the message/mail with the offending attachment from within your
i… Mail
i… messenger
or whatever
“IM” is
empty trash, too, and compact all folders afterwards… then reeneable Avast Shield
board search could hlp, too
Detection of ZipPSW worm means that the password protected ZIP with special characteristics was found (Beagle like). I believe you can safely delete it…

Thanx…will give it a shot later today…
Appears to have worked. Thank you 
I got it too. I deleted it, but it is still reported again on a rescan…
Hi,
either you got it again per Email/IM, (happens often with these Worms), or you didnt follow these instructions properly:
empty Mail-trash, too, and compact all Mailfolders afterwards.. then reeneable Avast Shield;)
