EDIT: Problem has been fixed.
Ok, so I had my computer on earlier, and I try to load up one of my games (Phantasy Star Online), and Avast! pops up, and tells me it is infected with:
Win32: Delf - MZG [Trj]
So I delete it, and then now the game won't run, it said something about I can't access this .exe, and I might not have the right permissions, etc etc.
So soon after that, I get a message from Avast! saying that my Operating System is infected, and to restart with a scan, so that is where I am at now.
The scan has been running for about an hour, with only 4% done.
And almost EVERY .exe is infected! And it's just not .exe's, but other files too.
So i got a few questions:
1. What the hell is this trojan? Is it a real bad one or a false positive?
2. If my Games that are installed, and the .exe's are infected, will my games still run? Or do I have to re-install them all?
3. Will this scan get rid of this? Or should I run another scan? (Recommend one?).
Thanks

Does this mean all the things Avast said was infected, and I choose the option to delete, do I have to re-install all of them? -
Well nvm. It did delete the files, but I got them back doing a System Restore, so everything is good now.
Thought I did enough digging around before I posted on here, guess not. -
Avast had something wrong with it signatures in the update before.. Now they have updated it already. So everything is fine.
If your're worried do scan with MBAM or SAS -

Glad its sorted out, what PSO were you playing?
Used to be one of my favorite games. Not too long ago I was trying out a PSO:BB and PSO V2 private servers.
I cant play PSO Universe anymore sega perma banned me for having duplicated/hacked items in my inventory. Im still upset at sega because they never gave me a chance to defend and tell them I really didnt know but worst yet is like over a year after my ban I decided to play the game again. I was able to reactivte my account, they took my money, and then when I logged on I was still banned......
I tried to contact CS over and over asking what the heck is happening and why they told me my account was active and ok and I never got any human reply or my money back.
Sucks I loved that game too. -

Ahhh....PSO you should get Rep just for that.
I TRULY hope that SEGA is working on another one to go in the franchise. Monster Hunter seems to be the new PSO. I cant wait for that to drop on Wii next year -
I play PSO: BB on the SCHTHACK server. It's privately run by two guys from the UK. We have Episode 1, 2, and 4 on the server. Everything works, trading, quest's, lobby's, etc. They even have a Forums.
No hacking/duping is allowed either. So it's a clean server, and a lot of nice people. If you ever get back into playing, that would be the place to go. -

They also have a V2 server that is allowing hacking.
