Need help please! infected and avast doesnt delete
« on: December 23, 2013, 09:42:20 PM »
Dear Forum, dear avast team,

sorry to bother you but I need help! I am infected and the file cant be deleted because it says it is used. What can I do? Now?



Malware Bytes anti malware doesnt find anything!
I am scared... :(

Thank you for every help. Happy holidays!

It says: Cant be deleted because the process is used.

It cant be moved into the containter either.

I am grateful for every help. I fear someone send me a virus / malware.

It seems it happened 8 hours ago. this is a screen of the infected file.



Thank you for every help. :) Such things really scare me.

follow instructions and attach logs (not copy and paste)  http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=53253.0

we need Malwarebytes / OTL / aswMBR logs

Thank you very much!
 I really appreciate the support! I am scared.
I read somewhere it is a bad virus. :( What do I do if it spreads?  What if the virus comes back after it jumped down just to avoid the scan?

MALWARE bytes didnt find anything!

here are the logs in attachement:

I didnt run aswr from desktop, is that bad?

should I run it again?

yes. I totally understand!!!  I really appreciate that you do this. I have the feeling that whoever infected me did this on purpose before christmas because i may not get people to help me. thank you! :)


I have not restarted my PC yet. Can I go offline and come back tomorrow? what if I cant use my PC tomorow anymore?  how can I see your forum?

Are you sure?

But it says:  High Danger /  File infected

And the file has been changed today. ( see screenshots )

Does this mean everything is okay?  Sorry if I bother you, but how can he be so sure that it is a false positive?

Was he the removal expert?  If yes, thank you Sir for your time and the quick response. I really appreciate it.

Please leave the thread open in case I cannot use my PC tomorrow or if things got worse.

Would be nice if someone can give me a " yes it is clean " answer.

Thank you very much! Happy holidays! Merry christmas!

upload the file detected to www.virustotal.com and test with 40+ malware scanners (if scanned before, click new scan)
post link to scan result here
