Task coach snapfile4/10/2023 ![]() Only 6 software (including the one my wife is using say that it is clean).Īvast incidentally reported it as Win32:RJump-B from Virustotal, but it still passes it (I can see it as it is scanning) on my computer when I put in the USB drive. Virustotal reported that it is malware, actually about 26 of the various antivirus software detected it but could not agree on the name - worm, win32. I was luck that yahoo virus scanner was temporarily unavailable at the time of attaching it, otherwise, it may have prevented me from mailing it. ![]() It is actually residing within C:\windows folder and I have been able to zip and mail it to the vendor. I was grateful for the opportunity to kill (end process). I detected RavmonE.exe (that is actually the correct name) on my wife's computer (the one running a licenced internet security suite) under processes (within Windows task manager). My question - has Avast being compromised by this ravmon.exe? To be fair, this licensed internet suite often detects some malware (win.32.I don't remember their full names) that Avast does not pick up. So I may get somebody to do what they want or just go ahead and uninstall completely. I am not a techie and cannot handle any convoluted process. The vendor wanted me to disable the antivirus, zip the antivirus and send it to them for analysis. Oh, What about my wife's computer? She paid for 2-years internet suite and she still has over 1 year to run. Agian, I tried to retrieve a file from my wife's computer it and it was zonealarm (free version), not Avast, that told me that ravmon.exe wanted to assess the trusted zone and also wanted to connect to the internet. Last week again, I wanted to scan a flash disk from a friend, I saw Avast list ravmon.exe among the files on the flash disk but did not raise any alarm for me to tell it what to do (eg delete). ![]() My dell notebook (Xp-professional) computer runs avast (free version) and has always shouted "virus, virus" (usually this ravmon.exe) whenever I copy a file from my wife's computer. I was surprised because I had checked the flash disk on my wife's computer running a licensed version of a "top-rated" antivirus. His machine running McAfee detected a virus (ravmon.exe) and cleaned it. I once took a flash disk to a friend to copy a file.
