Bancos and Acer.exe

by mancunian110369 Nov 10, 2008 5:07PM PST

I have recently added the Yahoo anti-virus scan powered by CA to the Yahoo tool bars in both my firefox and ie browsers.

I have done a scan and CA reports that that is finds Bancos IYG in windows/system32/acer.exe

My PC has Norton Interent security 2008 installed and also has Windows Defeneder.

Neither of them report any issues, I also used spyware doctor and again nothing aoart from some tracking cookies. Also downloaded the windows malacious software removal tool and that reported nothing.

Checked online to see if there hade been any other issues and it appears that it could be a "false positive" but want to be on the safe side.

I have come across a Blancos removal tool this morning whilst at work which I will try this evening.

I'm not too technical so I just about get by, any suggestions?

I'm aware that this is a duplicate thread as I think I posted in the wrong place earlier.
