I performed two full system scans, one last night and one this morning and I got a notice that I was stopping the scan at 99% done. I performed a boot time scan just now and there were "no infected files" according to the scan. During the scan however, I got messages about of 42110 Error (File is a decompression bomb) in connection to :Krita, Armored Warfare, Hearts of Iron IV and DCS World (all except Krita were downloaded from Steam). Another, Windows Power Shell ink had an error message: 42102 (Exception in Macrovirus Code) Am I Infected? Is this a glitch? Should I be running my computer right now?

The compression bob notice is only that a notification that a file that's compressed is very large when it gets uncompressed. It's not a notice of an infection.
