    This is not an executable file> it's temp file. Big difference.

    I don't know that Combofix can be considered a valid scan. I told you about AVG- it needs to be temporarily uninstalled and a temp AV used. AVG is all over the Combofix log.

    I just told you what AVG reported it as..

    And okay, so would you like me to redo that?

    I disabled AVG when I did the scan, but I guess that wasn't enough.

    We are not able to disableAVG to run Combofix. That's why we have you delete it temporarily.
    Executable files have an .exe file extension. The file from AVG has a .tmp file extension.

    Please update and rescan with Eset Online scan. If it is clean, I'll have you remove the cleaning tools and logs they made.
