[Noviciate]

Can you open up AVG's Virus Vault and tell me the filename and path of what exactly it quarantined.

[Ally]

Hi Noviciate , can you tell me how to copy and paste from the virus vault? it only seems to give me three options with the right click after I highlight the objects.there are quite a few warnings and infections in the vault.

[Noviciate]

You'll probably just have to enter whatever information you find manually. I assume that there's a date/time stamp on the detections, so you should be able to work out which files relate to the incident in question.

[Ally]

the infection is called Trojan Horse PSW.Banker5.ZOY in C:\System Volume Information\_restore{21F68494-61F2-4CA5-9FCA-E290BB62FA8F}\RP93\A0026625.exe there is also the same trojan infection in C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Malware Bytes\Malware Bytes' Anti-Malware\mbam-setup.exe there are a few other things in the virus vault but they have been there since my last visit.could this be one of those false positives?It was after I updated MalwareBytes and scanned with it that this warning came up from AVG.

[Noviciate]

System Volume Information is where Windows stores information about the PC held in System Restore points. This poses no direct threat to your PC, unless you use one of the infected points to restore the computer to - assuming that the detection isn't a false-positive, of course.
mbam-setup.exe may be malicious, or not, but if it's held in quarantine it's no longer a threat either way.

You can ignore the first one for now, as it is a simple matter to flush System Restore once we are sure that all is well with your PC. Pay a visit to the ESET Online Scanner - IE is proffered for this.

• Click the ESET Online Scanner button, read the info in the new window, check the appropriate box and click Start.
• Accept the ActiveX download, and allow it to install.
• Once this has been completed, you will see the Computer Scan settings page - ensure that you uncheck the "Remove found threats" box and then click Start.
• The virus signature database will now need to be downloaded, so don't forget to instruct your firewall to permit it if it asks.
• The above will take a little time, so now is a good time to fire up the kettle and open the biccies.
• Once the scan has completed you will be shown the results - assuming that the scanner has found anything.
• Click List of found threats and then Export to text file... and save the log somewhere convenient.
• You can then close out the scanner - don't bother uninstalling it as you may need to use it again.
• Please post the contents of this file in your next reply, or let me know that nothing was identified.

[Ally]

hi Noviciate,the scan found 1 threat,here is the text file > C:\System Volume Information\_restore{21F68494-61F2-4CA5-9FCA-E290BB62FA8F}\RP30\A0009893.exe a variant of Win32/Adware.ADON application

[Noviciate]

Looks like all's well, just a tweak and you're done:

Disable System Restore,
Reboot your PC,
Re-enable System Restore,
Create a Restore Point - this will give a clean one should you need it in the future.
A tutorial for System Restore is available here.

That should be your lot - run the PC for a day or two and then let me know how it's behaving.

[Ally]

Hi Noviciate,I followed your instructions and the PC has been running great these past two days.....Again thanks for all the help,much appreciated.
