Avast just found this "Win32:Adloader-AC [Trj]" And calls it a trojan horse.
When I try to move it to the chest it says there is not enough space on the disk. What? how can that be?
Is there a chest size setting? Im not really sure what to do with this.
Should I delete it permanently or put it in the trash?
Is it a false positive?
