HTML Virus

[niceextra]

When PassUrClass.com Arcade - Cool Online Games is loaded AVIRA Antivirus shows that it has the virus HTML/Crypted.Gen - Malware. I believe this virus is in the template, could anyone tell me more about it or how to fix it?

It may not be a virus, Avira is saying it may be as it includes some form of encrypted script (like VBScript or Javascript) which is used by some malware spreaders, but has legitimate uses too.

your antivirus should have deletion of virus affected files, before downloading scan for viruses then there should be choices like delete virus or something like that..

Hi,

Download either Combofix or Malwarebytes, and be careful to ensure you're downloading from the original source. These are free disinfecting agents, not AV software which remain resident. Boot to Safe Mode and run these applications (they may reboot your computer automatically -- that's OK -- boot again to Safe Mode until no more viruses are detected). Uninstall Internet Explorer and any other browsers you use (you can re-install later). For any browsers other than IE you should actually delete the folders in which the browsers were installed. I've seen viruses come back from browsers re-installed without this step being done.

Totally recommend Malwarebytes as well. It's a really good software.

I agree with elishahong, Malwarebytes is really a great software, indeed..
