    Hi everyone/anyone

    Have a problem which shows up in my computer when i try to do things. The AVG pops up and says threat detected while opening file C:\\windows\system32\cmcfg3.dll Trojan horsePSW.Generic5WFS

    I have followed all the steps in the read me before posting and the results were:

    Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool - nothing found
    Kaspersky Online virus scanner - will attach log
    AVG anti-spyware - nothing found
    Windows defender - no unwanted or harmful software detected.
    Hijack this log - will attach log

    Can someone help me - preferably in simple terms as i am not very literate in the behind the scenes work on computers

    thanks in advance for your time

    Rosie, I deleted the other thread. It is much more confusing having two threads running about the same subject than having a thread running where difficulty has been encountered and then corrected.
    Both logs show several trojans. One is located in System Restore.
    I need you to do the following;

    1. Download this file - combofix.exe
    2. Double click combofix.exe & follow the prompts.
    3. When finished, it will produce a log for you. Attach this log in the next post.
    Note:
    • Do not mouseclick combofix's window while it is running. That may cause it to stall.

    Sorry for taking so long - working at this in between other things.
