    Default ATRAPS.Gen Active & Everywhere

    I use Avira as my AV and regularly run their quick scan. Just this morning I ran a full scan and nearly every single active process on my machine (including winlogon.exe, svchost.exe, etc.) is claimed to be detected with "TR/ATRAPS.Gen". I have no idea how I got this. With so many files being infected, I can assume these are not false positives? As it's affecting core system files, I also assume I can't quarantine anything. How can I go about removing this infection?

    I've attached Combofix, DDS, and HJT logs. Please let me know what else I can possibly do.

    Hello Hyphen,

    So that everyone is on the same track please see the FAQ which includes guidelines for this forum and instructions in post #2.

    FYI for future reference: Please DO NOT RUN ComboFix without being asked

    Then start a new topic providing the DDS logs as shown in the sticky with a link back to this thread. A volunteer analyst will advise you when available.

    Best regards.
