Hi hrs-avast,
Here's some general advice you can follow-
Look for and remove rootkits (hidden malware):
Panda Antirootkit
Blacklight
AVG Anti-Rootkit
Try a boot time scan with avast! Right click the scanner screen, select 'schedule a boot time scan' and reboot when requested.
Try a scan with
DrWeb CureIT!
Try the usual free adware/spyware scanners.
AVG Anti-Spyware Free
(Requires Win2k/XP)
Ad-Aware Free
Spybot Search & Destroy
SUPERAntiSpyware Free
Download, install and update the programs. Disconnect from the internet (pull the plug) before running scans in
Safe Mode
if possible.
Always select the option to quarantine any malware found rather than delete it, then you will be able to restore files or registry entries wrongly identified as malware- a rare but not unknown event for any malware scanner.
Try some online scans. (Disable avast! while scanning.)
F-Secure
BitDefender
Panda
Trend Micro Housecall
If still having problems,
post a HijackThis! log
.
When you have finished, scan for out-of-date and insecure software using
Secunia Software Inspector
and update any vulnerable software: this will help to prevent future infections.
Install
SpywareBlaster
also to prevent future infections: don't forget to update every month or so.

Hi
thanks for the advices.
I did the scans and found the EreurChasseur hidden in some cookies.
I cleared the cookies file and it seems OK now.
Thanks again
