Virus were still in the quarantine area (I thought I've removed them permanently ), so I deleted them. Is that all I have to do?
· Prior to scanning with
MBAM, click
update so you have latest database before scanning.
· Under Settings:
o
General: Automatically Save File After Scan Completes is checked off
o
Scanner Settings:
Check all boxeso
Updater: Download and install update if available is checked off
· Once the program has loaded, select "Perform
FULL Scan", then click Scan.
· The scan may take some time to finish, so please be patient.
· When the disinfection scan is complete, a log will appear in Notepad and you may be prompted to Restart. (See Extra Note).
· Click the “
remove selected” button to quarantine anything found. You will find the infection details under the Quarantine tab.
· The log is automatically saved by MBAM and can be viewed by clicking the Logs tab in MBAM.

-> You should have moved the infected items to quarantine instead of deleting them. So update MBAM, and follow the directions above. Then cut and paste your log to your next post.
After running MBAM, update your Avast definitions and run a
Full Avast scan. Report on the results of this as well. If anything comes up as infected, make sure it goes into the
Virus Chest (do
NOT delete it).
Do you have a 32 or 64-bit machine?
We will await your next post to give you further instructions. Thank you.
