MSE warning me of threats but not detecting them.
A few days ago I noticed my system was performing slower than usual. MSE was also alerting me of numerous threats that it had dealt with.
I ran a full scan and found around 5 trojans called "trojan: Win32/Peals.B!plock"
I ran scan after scan, MSE would remove these threats but new ones would be detected.
After a few days I ran another scan and during the scan, MSE displayed the same message it had done for the other scans: "preliminary scans show that there may be malicious or unwanted content on your system" but the scan came up clean for the first time in days.
Is this message normal? Have I actually removed this trojan permanantly or should I be more worried?
I understand there has been a recent Windows 7 update which has addressed some security issues so that might have sorted it.
I hope I don't seem too paranoid, I just want peace of mind. :)
