Virus detect on Device Manager click
« on: August 23, 2005, 02:05:51 PM »
After installing Avast 4 home, I wanted to check the status of a modem driver that I just installed.  I right-clicked on My Computer => Properties,  Hardware tab the Device Manager button.  Immediately on clicking on the button I got a virus detect error.  At the time I didn’t connect clicking on the button and getting the error. So I clicked on delete the virus.  However every time I click on the Device Manager button I get a virus warning.  Deleting the virus doesn’t help.  Any ideas?

I suppose you're using XP.
Can you post the name and the path of the 'infected' driver file?
