Trojan.peed.gen

I have been continually getting infected by trojan.peed.gen. It keeps popping up when I use firefox, and the infected file is always in firefox's cache. BitDefender keeps blocking it, but says disinfection failed.


I did a deep scan and I found about 10 emails that were infected with generic.peed.eml. So does this mean the virus is not blocked and is indeed sending itself in emails from my machine? I can't get rid of this thing, please help

    Disable your bitdefender for a second after that go in firefox -> tools -> clear private data -> clear private data now. Make sure that the "cache" option is selected from the list. After that (very important ;) enable your bitdefender again. Tell me if it worked.

    Hello,


    please attach the file detected as Trojan.Peed.Gen. It may be a false positive...

    I can't get to the file after BitDefender blocks it. Windows shows the file but when I try to access or delete it, it says it does not exist. BitDefender always says:


    disenfection failed


    moved


    So I guess I disable BitDefender next time it pops up, then copy the file? Sounds dangerous

    It isn't (to) dangerous if you reactivate it after sending the copy :)
