Massive Trojan Found - Almost every file

EDIT: Problem has been fixed.


Ok, so I had my computer on earlier, and I try to load up one of my games (Phantasy Star Online), and Avast! pops up, and tells me it is infected with:

Win32: Delf - MZG [Trj]

So I delete it, and then now the game won't run, it said something about I can't access this .exe, and I might not have the right permissions, etc etc.

So soon after that, I get a message from Avast! saying that my Operating System is infected, and to restart with a scan, so that is where I am at now.

The scan has been running for about an hour, with only 4% done.

And almost EVERY .exe is infected! And it's just not .exe's, but other files too.

So i got a few questions:

1. What the hell is this trojan? Is it a real bad one or a false positive?

2. If my Games that are installed, and the .exe's are infected, will my games still run? Or do I have to re-install them all?

3. Will this scan get rid of this? Or should I run another scan? (Recommend one?).

Thanks

its apparently a bug in avast?

 

Well this all happened after I downloaded the update for Avast.

Does this mean all the things Avast said was infected, and I choose the option to delete, do I have to re-install all of them?

 

Well nvm. It did delete the files, but I got them back doing a System Restore, so everything is good now.

Thought I did enough digging around before I posted on here, guess not.

 

Avast had something wrong with it signatures in the update before.. Now they have updated it already. So everything is fine.

If your're worried do scan with MBAM or SAS

 

Glad its sorted out, what PSO were you playing?

Used to be one of my favorite games. Not too long ago I was trying out a PSO:BB and PSO V2 private servers.

I cant play PSO Universe anymore sega perma banned me for having duplicated/hacked items in my inventory. Im still upset at sega because they never gave me a chance to defend and tell them I really didnt know but worst yet is like over a year after my ban I decided to play the game again. I was able to reactivte my account, they took my money, and then when I logged on I was still banned......

I tried to contact CS over and over asking what the heck is happening and why they told me my account was active and ok and I never got any human reply or my money back.

Sucks I loved that game too.

 

Ahhh....PSO you should get Rep just for that.

I TRULY hope that SEGA is working on another one to go in the franchise. Monster Hunter seems to be the new PSO. I cant wait for that to drop on Wii next year

 

Ya, they banned a few of my friends that had hacked/duped items.

I play PSO: BB on the SCHTHACK server. It's privately run by two guys from the UK. We have Episode 1, 2, and 4 on the server. Everything works, trading, quest's, lobby's, etc. They even have a Forums.

No hacking/duping is allowed either. So it's a clean server, and a lot of nice people. If you ever get back into playing, that would be the place to go.

 

Yeah thats the one I was playing around with, just didnt get the time to get into it much.

They also have a V2 server that is allowing hacking.
