[Player7900]

Hello all, my name is Player7900.

There is a virus that keeps on reappearing on my system, despite numerous attempts to eradicate it. It is identified by Avira AntiVir as "TR/vundo.gen", and the actual file is called "tdlwsp.dll" which keeps appearing in my [C:/Windows/System32] folder.

I have tried "move to quarantine" as well as "delete" when it is detected by Avira, but it always comes after a few hours. I have also run full scans using Windows Defender and MalwareBytes Anti-Malware - both of which have come clean.

I can't exactly tell what the virus is doing - my internet connection is fine, and my programs are functioning normally, as far as I can tell. But of course, something that can keep coming back after being quarantined...cannot be good!

Here is my HijackThis Log:

Someone please help...it's been 7 days since the previous post, and the problem still exists.

In fact, now there is another file that gets flagged by Avira AntiVir called "tdlclk.dll", while the old one was "tdlwsp.dll"...both in the System32 folder. I can post a new HijackThis log if necessary.
