I downloaded Avast, Did a complete scan of my C: drive and all files.Even tho nothing was found during scan. Avast did report while I was going on-line that a Suspicious File Was Found''

File Name C:\WinssRec.exe

rootkit: hidden process

With a green check mark in a box ,Saying submit the file to

AIWIL Software Virus lab for further analysis. I tryed the delete now. But got a warning that unless I was sure this is a virus , I should not remove. So I canceled the action.

But did leave the submit button checked. Later I went back on-line and got the same message. What is the action anyone would advise me to make Please. Am at a loss as to how to cure this problem. TYIA. Dian
