Hi Guys,been using avast for some time now excellent!
thanks all and to your great site!,not had much chance to use it only occasionally as i have not had much problems so far, up until the other day
when i turned on my pc and the desktop screen loaded up and AVAST warning box came up with the warning of a virus,now i know this has cropped up a few times looking on the forum,this is what i had appear:-
D:\Windows\system32\Drivers\mchinj\Drv.sys\Win32.Trojan.gen detected!
I done some alternate scannning with spybot,a2 free v3.0,adaware,crapcleaner,cleared out all temp files,without any joy plus hijack this scan lots more,nothing?,the message warning happened everytime i restarted or started the pc up,so i put it into the avast virus chest as recommended.
Thinking about it a bit more i thought it might be hiding in the system restore points as everytime i quarantine the virus in the chest,when i restart the pc it shows up again!,soi turned off the restore on all drives and rebooted and done an avast pre-boot scan to see if anything picked up,nothing,so it seems whatever it was is now gone and system restore was initiating it,sorry for the long story but if anyone else has the same probs it might help to do what i have done,plus do a safe boot scan aswell!,just to be sure.
My question here is-this:-
I have 4 identical lines of the infected virus(e.g each time i restarted the pc 4 times i moved the virus to the chest same one each time) in the chest,what do i do with them now? ,can i now safely delete them or not?- advice please.
I have since rebooted 6 times and the warning message does not come up anymore.
