Thanks Firefox, will download now and see if this helps!

I'm not sure I have any anti malware software. Would this be included with Norton?

Thanks Firefox, but was is MBAM? I'm really not very technical!

OK, I have deleted avast! as this was the free one. The Norton scan is showing quite a few tracking cookies detected in the last month, but these allare listed as low severity. there have been 5 things listed as high severity since the start of the year: Trojan Horse detected by Auto-Protect - 28/01/2010 18:52:02 " " - 28/01/2010 20:20:02 " " - 28/01/2010 20:30:29 " " - 02/02/2010 20:19:31 Auto-Protect has detected Backdoor. Tidserv!gen3 - 14/03/2010 11:18:11 Is that bad? Thanks, Liam

Would this cause the Malware issue? I started to run an full scan with avast!, but left the computer as it was taking so long. Norton is now running a full scan as the computer went into sleep mode. Should I delete avast! all together then?

Have you done a recent full system scan with either of your AVs fully updated? This should be your next step. Will do this now and let you know the results!!

Thanks Marcus! So as long as I don't physically run both to Scan at the same time I'm OK? I don't suppose you know how I can check whether there is this Malware stuff lurking within the walls in my computer do you? Liam

Hi! I have received two notifications from avast! to say there is possible Malware on my laptop. I have no idea how to check this, let alone prevent it. Help!! My computer is a Dell Inspiron and I have Norton 360 (paid for) and avast! (free). Is having two seperate antvirus devices bad? Thanks in advance, Liam
