What detected it ?

What is the infected file name, where was it found e.g. (C:\windows\system32\infected-file-name.xxx) ?

####
Check the suspect file/s at: VirusTotal - Multi engine on-line virus scanner and report the findings here in the topic, the URL in the Address bar of the VT results page. If multiple scanners find these infected send the samples to avast for analysis and inclusion in the virus database.

Send the sample to virus@avast.com zipped and password protected with the password in email body, a reference to this topic (give URL) and undetected malware in the subject.
 
Or you can also add the file to the User Files (File, Add) section of the avast chest (if it isn't already there) where it can do no harm and send it from there. A copy of the file/s will remain in the original location, so you will need to take further action and can remove/rename that.
 
Send it from the User Files section of the chest (select the file, right click, email to Alwil Software). It will be uploaded (not actually emailed) to avast when the next avast auto (or manual) update is done.
####

Then:
If you haven't already got this software (freeware), download, install, update and run it and report the findings (it should product a log file).

hi brother download dr.web cure it
clean all temp folder in your hard disk
start dr.web cure it but dont launch any program until cure it finish to avoid spreading viruses after catching it.
after that dr.web will ask you to restart accept that then restart.
