When i try to select "remove all unhealed" in AVG it says that removing the virus can cause instability or a system crash. How can i get rid of it safely?
Here's a screen of my AVG and the virus details. http://i964.photobucket.com/albums/a...lity/Virus.png
It is safe to remove that file, if AVG for any reason wont remove it, download malwarebytes and use that instead.
Ok thanks, i removed it with AVG. It also found an information thing during the scan for
"Object name";"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\resident evil 5\redist\gfwlivesetup.exe"
And the problem is
"Detection name";"The file is signed with a broken digital signature, issued by: Microsoft Corporation."
Any idea what that means?
Well it can mean many things, most likely the digital signature is out of date which causes AVG to claim it is broken. AVG in my experience tends to display a lot of false positives. Make sure you got the software from the legitimate vendor in any case.
Try giving it a scan with Norton Power Eraser & see what it has to say:

Or try running MS Safety Scanner and see what results it comes up with:Because Norton Power Eraser uses aggressive methods to detect threats, there is a risk that it can select some legitimate programs for removal. You should use this tool very carefully.
Microsoft Safety Scanner - Remove Spyware, Malware, Viruses Free
If they detect nothing wrong, then it's probably a false positive. If they find something wrong with the file though, you'll probably want to do some investigating.
Try using Malwarebytes (Malwarebytes) or Hitman Pro (it is a trial version BUT, the scans are fast and VERY accurate) I also recommend you download Spybot Search & Destroy or SUPERAntiSpyware.
I removed it with AVG and then did a full MalwareBytes scan and it's not reading anything now
Yeah i mean Malwarebytes and AVG aren't picking up any viruses now, so i'm sure it's fine
