I am getting a message Threat secured. We've moved to your Quarantine because it was infected with PwrSh:Agent-AX[Rat]
Threat name PwSh:Agent-AX[Rat]
Threat type Remote Acess Trojan…
Process C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe
Detected by File Shield
Status Moved to Quaratine
Option Report as false positive
I just installed AVG today because I knew when I downloaded a virus…just I'm an idiot. I was not paying attention. But how do I stop this pop up. I paid for a year of AVG. Do i just ditch it? I checked the Quarantine folder. Nothing is there. I researched this file and it appears to be a legit file. This is driving me nuts.
