Hi ,Avast prevented a malware infection which im very pleased about! But I would like to understand what this is,, because i am not sure if i should use the program now.The reason im wondering about this, is my computer was idle when the popup came. the only thing open on my computer was my email program and i wasnt using the computer. Here is the pop up message
"MALWARE BLOCKED
avast file system shield has blocked a threat.
Object: C:\MicroGaming\Poker\PokerTimeMPP\install.exe
Infection: Win32:Trojan-gen
Action:
Process: C:\Windows\System32\rundll32.exe
The threat was detected and blocked just before the file was opened."
I have not had the pokertime program opened for several weeks, so I am not sure what this threat was all about. I don't know anything about this stuff so just wondered if someone could explain to me what this means . I undertsand that avast blocked it before it caused a problem, but where would it have come from? Does it mean there is a problem with my pokertime program? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Cindy
