ZFEcolife Posted January 5, 2014 ID:773758 Share Posted January 5, 2014 I'm new to the forums, but not sure where to put my question. I ran MB earlier and I found out I'm infected with the Trojan.MSIL. Panicked, I deleted it as soon as my scan is finished. I'm not sure if it's the real deal or just a false positive. I deleted the file after I rebooted it. MB didn't find any new virus within my system. The Trojan.MSIL is attached to a program called comhost.exe, is that a really bad place to be infected? Strangely, this program is found in my Pictures folder, not within system32 files. I attach the log below. Thanks in advance for any helpmbam-log-2014-01-05 (04-32-38).txt Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZFEcolife Posted January 5, 2014 Author ID:773761 Share Posted January 5, 2014 O BTW, I can't find the comhost.exe within my Picture folder. What exactly happened? Any help is appreciated. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff shadowwar Posted January 5, 2014 Staff ID:773792 Share Posted January 5, 2014 It looks like you selected to delete that file. I doubt that was a false positive do to it being in the pictures folder. You can go to the quarantine tab and restore it. Then zip the file and attach it here and i will double check it. You should scan in normal mode most of the time. The only time you should do safe mode is if you cant get mbam to start. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What should I do now that I deleted that file. Is my computer safe or is it still at risk?Noted, will scan under normal mode next time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZFEcolife Posted January 5, 2014 Author ID:773806 Share Posted January 5, 2014 But why would the comhost.exe be in the Pictures folder? Just curious Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff shadowwar Posted January 5, 2014 Staff ID:773827 Share Posted January 5, 2014 Well without the file its really hard to say but comhost.exe has no place being in pictures folder so it should be a correct detection. If you want your computer double checked please post in the malware removal forum and they will take a look at it for you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
