Macrovirus Question

[forgotmylgin]

Hello

Im using Avast Internet Security and I  have hmm sort of hard question here since I dont remember much details because this thing happen 1 week ago and I didnt thought I should do any panic + I didnt had much time, but I do have some questions now. If its not in proper section , please move it there , thank you.

So few days ago I was scanning my PC ( after restart option ) and I found some "macrovirus" thingy , now Im not sure if it was virus or anything dangerous but I thought it didnt because at the end when there's summary it said 0 infected files. This "macrovirus" was in file that was quite safe in my opinion , it was my own saved game from the skyrim I played few days ago before that happen. And as at the end of scan it said 0 infected files I thought I might just delete the file ( saved game file of Skyrim ) normally. And it was all ok since then. But now I have some question , would like to know and hear some explanation from the experts.

So im wondering what is this macrovirus , why was it in such file? And if its something serious or just some false alarm.
Thank you a lot for your time and your help

Thank you very much for the links.
But since I dont have the file anymore cause I deleted it manually by my self I cannot upload it anywhere.. but avast didnt show me that message no more but as I said in the first place , it never told me that there's any infected file and I do scan quite often. Only message saying something about macrovirus or something in that matter. Should I be doing some special scan or could it be false "alarm" did anyone else had this kind of problem in the recent time? Thanks again! I really appreciate your help.

was it moved to virus chest?

Actually when I think about it , it didnt even asked me to move it into the chest or didnt even stop and asked me anything at all didnt show me any option , otherwise I'd move it to the chest ,  it just wrote something about macrovirus and went on with the scan and at the end there was 0 infected files , even when I checked the report it says no virus. So im wondering what was it and if its ok or  if I should be worried and do some special scan.

Thanks a lot , will do so tomorrow seems like a lot stuff to do , what is your opinion on this thing and on the fact it didnt asked me to move it to chest should that be good sign or bad one?  Oh btw im using S&D 1 + TeaTimer everything updated to latest version.  Did anyone had similar problem lately?

One more question , should I start new thread or post the logs here? I made all scans exept RogueKiller for shortcuts.
