Hello, newbie here. =)
I
appear to be having the same problem as described in this thread:
http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=36318.0Here is a screen shot of the Avast! alert:
After displaying this alert, Avast! then instructs me to delete the file, so of course I click "OK" to let Avast! do what it's told me to do, Avast! then instructs me to run a computer scan, of course I do this - the computer scan says zero infected files, Avast! keeps flagging up this possible rootkit thing and repeats it's instructions to delete then run a scan.
If it helps, the antivirus I'm currently using is the downloaded Avast! Free Antivirus.
I am at a complete loss as to what to do as I don't know much about this stuff.
Thank-you all who read this for your time and interest, it's greatly appreciated. Best wishes and kind regards.
Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated, just please bear in mind I'm not all that familiar with technical terms and this area of computing in general.
