malwarebytes not finding my virus


Recommended Posts

While I was logged into my yahoo mail account, I foolishly clicked on a link within aqn email from a friend. This apparently put a virus on my computer because within hours all the contacts in my yahoo addressbook were sent an email supposedly coming from me and with a link for them to click on.

I ran a full scan of malwarebytes latest version with the current definitions but nothing was found except a false positive on an Orace file that is for my work at Oracle. It is

C:\ProgramData\Oracle\MyDesktopHolding\unlicensed\global\mydesktop\windows\oraclemydesktop_4.0.0.0.exe (Adware.Adrotator) -> No action taken.

Can anyone tell me why my computer was obviously infected yet nothing shows up in Malwarebytes?
