In Response To: Re: Virus in antivirus (Igor Donchenko)

The virus came from my son downloading music.
I got it isolated with AVG but it toke several tries. I've got it twice more since then again from downloading music. I have to re-enstall AVG as the update program was infected the first time. The AVG will isolate this virus and put it and the infected program in a "vault". It can be deleted from there.

I'm sure AVG is doing all they can to find a way to catch this trojan before it infects files. I know of no antivirus that will do that at this time. I do think the virus was on my computer before I updated and only after I updated did AVG catch it. Just shows how important it is to update very week or two.
