Schedule a boot time scanning with avast. Start avast! > Right click the skin > Schedule a boot-time scanning. Select for scanning archives. Boot. Other option is scanning in SafeMode (repeatedly press F8 while booting).

If infected files are found, it's safer to send them to Chest instead of deleting them.
This way you can further analysis them.
