Did avast! detect it while you were surfing the web with Firefox?

Have you done a boot time scan with avast?

Right click the avast! globe and select Start avast! Antivirus.

avast! will do a memory scan: if it find the worm in memory, it will prompt you to do a boot time scan: accept this and reboot.

If avast! doesn't find anything in memory, schedule a boot time scan. (Click the button at the top left of the avast! silver console and select Schedule boot time scan from the drop-down menu.)

Hi Wojtku,

Before you do that, disable system restore.
