Hi,

I am infected according to AVG by Trojan Horse Downloader Agent.ETP and it only tells me that I am infected but it doesnt clean the virus. The infected File is C:\WINDOWS\&NtuninstallQ309521$\wininet.dll.

I tried to run erwido, I updated it but when I press Scan.. it freezes and freeze my PC also, keyboard doesnt respond, so I have to turn my pc off and turn it on again. I unplug this pc from the Hub 'cause I dont know if its gonna damage my other Pc.

Please!! I need some help :(. Thanks in advance for your time and help.

I scan the file in Virus Total but the report said there is no virus in this file. I opened my AVG and run a second scan and there was again, the same virus warning, same file.

_______________________
Looks to me like this is a false positive made by Avast. It happens.

I would like to know if this was a typo on your part though.

C:\WINDOWS\&NtuninstallQ309521$\wininet.dll.

should of been
C:\WINDOWS\$NtuninstallQ309521$\wininet.dll.

Notice the dollar sign ($) instead of ( &) after windows/


This is a legitimate file .


________________
Other than that your looking pretty clean.
I would do this though.

One optional fix.

You have NvQTwk,NvCplDaemon initialize running at Startup. This is a video card tweak. This program is not required to start automatically as you can start it manually if you need it. It is advised that you disable this program so that it does not take up necessary resources. It may be worthwhile to fix it with HijackThis. This is the item to fix in HijackThis:

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [NvCplDaemon] RUNDLL32.EXE NvQTwk,NvCplDaemon initialize
