I run  everyday a whole system scan with avast and I find everytime this script in my documents. Why does avast not see it the time it is coming in my pc? Is it dangerous? Why do I find it everyday in my pc? Where does it come from?

Where is it located (in which file)?
Is it always in the same file?
Do you have the resident scanner sensitivity set to Normal or High?

Yesterday i set the script sensitivity to high and today I found again this script in this file: C:\Documents and Settings\dex\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\CPIVS9U7\index[2].htm
Why doesn't avast block it?

I looked at the script sensitivity level after I wrote the previous message and it was to custom, allthough i put it at high yesterday, is it to custom because I unchecked Mozilla and Netscape and the splash screen? If yes what is the level, high or normal?

You can send the file to us (e.g. to support@avast.com or divis@avast.com) to see what's really inside -- it's hard to tell from the name.

Thanks

Dear  Hariskar,
   VBS:Malware is a generic name for a lot of different pices of malware. We are not able to tell what it really is without the infected file. Please send it to me, divis@asw.cz, or to support@asw.cz for analysis.

Download Internet Sweeper from here:- http://www.bmesite.com/  this will delete the index.dat file and the malware along with it.  As with the above poster I kept getting this on every scan and because the malware file is in the index.dat file it can't be moved to the chest or deleted by Avast, as it can't be moved to the cheat it isnt possible to send it to Avast.

HTH,
Trev
