First time infection for me - need advice
Tonight Avira detected "TR/Obfuscate.XZ.7546" in the file 'C:\Windows\Installer\AMDEx2.msi'. I have no idea how it got there.
Apparently Avira wasn't able to remove it as it kept popping up again. I install Malwarebytes Free edition, scanned and it found the same file infected and proceeded to remove it and asked to reboot. I have now rebooted, scanned with Malwarebytes and Avira. Nothing found.
Can I feel confident that the threat is removed? I tried to google the Avira name of the trojan but I could not find any information. Even Aviras built-in database got nothing on it.
Malwarebytes simply called it "Malware/Generic".
