Hello Tomas,
We can certainly take a look into this. May I know the AVG program you're using (AVG Antivirus free/AVG Internet Security) for your computer protection?
Regards,
Alok.

Hello!
I have the same problem, the same type of virus. I can't get rid of it, avg and avast didn't fix it. I need some help, if anyone know what is this, if this is very dangerous and how to remove it.

Hello Gustavo,

I will certainly check this for you.

Do you get a threat detection pop-up from AVG?

If no, please let us know, how you came to know that your computer is infected by this threat?

Hello
Karthikeyan, first i got the threat alert from avast, it couldn't help me so i tried avg. I scanned my laptop with both programs - avast and avg - no threat discovered. Then i got the threat alert from avg when i was using it. Both threat alerts from avast and avg are exactly the same - same type, same virus name - and the screenshot Thomas has shown us is the exactly alert message i got here. It keeps popping up every 2 or 3 hours, maybe less, it is inconstant. I have seen some other people talking about the same virus alert and same issue me and Thomas had in this forum. 
Thomas, thank you for letting me know about this program. I am going to try this one.
