Win32:KeyHooker-E [PUP]
« on: August 16, 2012, 07:51:28 PM »
This virus is now in virus chest.  I did a rescan and it does have the virus.

 :(The problem is that it is in the following file:C:\Program Files\Lenovo\Driver $ Application Auto-installation, and I believe that because it is in the virus chest the computer sometimes hangs and does not shut down.  Also unable to install or uninstall some files because I get a window stating that it is unable to fine uninstaller or installer file.  My coputer tower says Lenovo, so I do not know if I can remove this file without affecting the computer system.

What shd I do?

ths is reported here before.... it belongs to a lenovo program.... somi would restore that

PUP - not a virus = Possible Unwanted Program 
avast is telling you that you have a program that can be used for good or bad if abused

pup scan is default off in quick/full scan ...... but default on in boot scan
