Title: Virus?
Post by: J!ll on Jan 09, 2010, 17:30:22
Avast has detected a virus in the operating memory, so have been advised to do a scan in boot phase  :dunno:

Go to work and come home to this, which son do I deal with!  :rant2:

If it was only in memory it will be gone after a re-boot !

Well it hasn't, I'm still here so I don't think it is that bad, just annoying. So I will need to sort I suppose, cos it's causing lots of probs I am not able to deal with, cos I don't understand  :'(

Run a full virus scan in safe mode, also download Malwarebytes or Superantispyware and run another full scan.
