You might want to check (and bookmark) these links for the future avast! VPS Updates History (http://www.avast.com/eng/viruses/vps_history.html) and VGREP (http://www.virusbtn.com/resources/vgrep/) Virus Name search and information. We need VGrep because, without the correct name, it may prove very difficult to access accurate information about a virus and its effects.

VGREP is experiencing a problem now, so unable to check for 'funner.' I think you may need more information as well.

VGrep works fine here, but doesn't have funner in it (yet?).
