Avast is protecting me. I ran a quick scan and it showed I had 2 infections. Ran a boot time scan and no threats detected. Then ran another quick scan, also no threats detected.

I did not get the red popup that says threat detected.

For a start VPS updates and streaming updates can also resolve false positives. So that is one instance why it may not be detected on subsequent scans.

You won't get a red popup as that is only for the on-access scanners, so unless that files was running it wouldn't be being scanned.

What are the on-access scanners?

The real-time scanners, file system shield, web shield and mail shield.

They are scanning every accessed file on the computer.

Xfinity and Comcast are the same ISP.

I don't know how to upload the file to virustotal.

So why should anyone else do the searching for you, if you refuse to do it

midnight · « **Reply #11 on:** November 28, 2013, 02:48:06 PM »

I didn't ask anyone else to do the searching for me.

Well the comment "That's it ?" in your last post suggests that the answer wasn't enough, almost ungrateful.

I don't care what that comment suggests. You can't read my mind!

We can't do everything for you.
Sometimes you need to take the initiative.
By doing something on your own will help you learn.
