I was advised that my PC might be infected with the worm above. Symptoms: Pop up warning window any time I want to access Internet, message: "Windows can not find ProgramName. Make sure you typed the name correctly..." By the way, in a few seconds the original access command is executed, but the warning window stays. I am directed to http:\\support.microsoft.com/kb/837334, given instructions there (like modifying Registry etc) includes : "Update the virus definition of the antivirus software installed on your computer: Scan your computer with the antivirus software then follow instruction to remove this worm"
Installed is avast v.4.7. Using windows Explorer I can not find the virus. How do I do this with avast? (scanning the PC and remove the worm)
Please advise. Thank you.
