Resolved: Found one Trojan horse on Windows 7 computer

[Diddy]

HI I was wondering if I could ask a question you see we have two computers in the house and I look after the security of them.  My mom told me that the computer that has Windows 7 on it was really slow when I got back home I did a quick scan last night and avast 7 free lased version when finished found one infected file so after I put the trojan in the virus chest it was successfully put in the chest then I was asked to do a boot time scan to do a full clean up so I ran the boot time scan and while the boot time scan was running it found some files that were infected with funweb and my websearch.  My question is this should I worry about the files that are infected with funweb Pup and my web search.  So today after avast 7 free was updated I did a full scan with avast and it got done and said no threat found does this mean that the trojan is no longer on this computer.  I was just wanting some help
the name of the virus is win32: $R9HF5.exe Lockerscreen-MU (TRJ) severty High
Ps: I sent the virus to the virus lab

Thanks and have a great day

not the guide i mean installed with funweb and my websearch

[Diddy]

HI I am scared to do something wrong because the computer I am talking about is my step dad's computer when I found all the funweb stuff and my web search it was only during the boot time scan and it put all that stuff in the virus chest anyways.  I am not an advanced user at all and I am worried about messing something up that I won't be able to fix if I delete the wrong file do you understand.

Thanks for your help everyone

HI If I install adwcleaner on my Windows Vista computer or the second computer can I just do a scan and safe the results in the program to make sure I am deleting the right stuff and not messing something up is this possible with adwcleaner at all.

Thanks

AdwCleaner will only remove browser/toolbar crap   

if not run, Essexboy will remove the same crap when he see it in the OTL log, but it saves him lots of time and work when creating the OTL fix as he then dont have to include this   

[Diddy]

hI I was wondering if I could ask what does otl do by oldtimer what does it do exactly and what do I do after the scan is complete what do I do with the log how do I save it and put it on the virus and worms section.

Thanks

[Pondus]

it does not do anything until Essexboy instruct it to do so, based on the diagnostic log it produce when you run it first (surf the virus and worms topics and see)

do I save it and put it on the virus and worms section.

you can save it here as you have already started this topic

what do I do with the log how

all instructions are in the guide you got link to

Essexboy need the following logs

AdwCleaner
Malwarebytes
OTL
aswMBR
