Hello all, first post.
Dell 2300, P4 512Mb
XP Home Service Pack 2
Current Security config:-
ZoneAlarm [current]
AVG [current] with Resident [off]
Avast [current] I'm evaluating
Spybot + Spyware Blaster
Hi, Im new to avast as I'm evaluating at present when all of a sudden Avast blasts off with two alerts within a minute of each other, these are in order.
cmdow.exe in WINDOWS\system32 transfer time of 20:53:**
wga.dll in WINDOWS\system32 transfer time of 20:57:**
So I'm off into defence mode, I decided to kill the internet. run Spybot (clean) then run a normal scan with avast which then threw up these.
A0136813.exe in System Volume Information\_restore named Win32:Trojan-gen {Other}
A0136820.exe in System Volume Information\_restore named Win32:Trojan-gen {Other}
A0136440.exe in System Volume Information\_restore named Win32:Trojan-gen {Other}
A0140442.dll in System Volume Information\_restore named Win32:Delf-DYU {Other}
Now I'm wondering if Avast has cleaned the computer correctly and not going to return when I boot or at a later time?.
Should I check with AVG aswell?
and
Did Avast catch this in time?
and if so where did it come from?
as I was waiting for the computer to finish scanning with a different program when the alert happened.
How did this virus get on board? and is it now clean.
Thanks in advance
Phil
