Impossible to answer from the info given

Does avast detect it?  if so what does the avast message say?  post a screenshot

Is it detected by a other security program you have?  if so what does the message say?  post a screenshot


If you want help, click the link @Asyn posted above and attach the requested logs

No, Avast does not detect virus.
explorer.exe does not detected by other security program.
But, if I switch off the computer, it says : "Please wait, explorer.exe will stop, or some similar.
When I switch on the computer, I should wait for 5 minets to start Windows menu.
I read in Internet, it is an explorer.exe virus  :(
