Hello, GiGi here.
I have avast free as my anti virus. I installed it right during a malware attack since it was the first thing i thought about doing that would help the situation. Avast has helped me to delete/fix/repair/move to chest most of the malware that was coming and had on my computer. However, anytime i run full system scans or a boot time scan it will leave me with one infectious file (avast actually registers it as two files, although i think its one as both have the same file location), file name (really the location): C:\Windows\SysWOW64\dnsapi.dll with high severity registered by avast and the threat is called: Win32:Patched-AWK[Trj] and avast will not repair/delete or move the file to chest because its a read only file with error code 6009. When it tries to fix it says that it is open in another program. I know how to get to the file but i can't delete it because it says it is open in avast.
This Trojan will limit my connection to the internet. For example, it will not let me go on Minecraft servers at times, it won't let me go to certain webpages at certain times, when i try to move a window across my screen it will go real slowly and you can see the pointer (mouse) on the screen moving it with another pointer which i can move freely but can preform no actions, it won't let me view photos on the internet (i was in avast and it would let me view photos on some threads), it will not let me send photos on skype, it will not let me connect to the internet on Spotify, and finally it will not let me open at all Mozillia Firefox (it "crashes" as soon as i try to open it). Also, curiously enough, it installed something called MPC cleaner with some other stuff on my computer branded by MPC and it sets my search engine to asearch.com whenever i change it to google.com.

Help anyone?
