Hello,
I have Malwarebytes premium and AVG premium running. I have a scheduled daily full scan on both. I noticed that my AVG was not performing it's daily scans. I still ran a deep scan everyday and today I used the repair tool on AVG to try to remedy the problem. After using it and scanning. It found a virus JS:ScriptIP-inf [Trj]. I don't download anything and I think I browse with caution. I also have both malwarebytes running and AVG. I dont know how I could have gotten a virus.
I'd request to click 'Send for analysis' from AVG quarantine to submit the file for analysis.

It looks like a browser hijacker which is a form of unwanted software that modifies a web browser's settings without a user's permission, to inject unwanted advertising into the user's browser. A browser hijacker may replace the existing home page, error page, or search engine with its own.
I'm also wondering if it is a real virus, what kind of damage am I looking at? What should I do to my accounts?
I ran the file through Virustotal and only avast/avg detected it. Here are the results
VirusTotal
Does that mean that it is probably a false positive?

Thank You for answering. I want to know if this was a real infection or a false positive. I would also like to know what are the possible implications of having this virus for maybe a long time on my computer, what is copromised and what can be done moving forward?
Hello,
I had the virus quarintined and I scanned the folder in the path. What else should I do?
M Y, it is likely to be a false positive but we cannot confirm it here.
As you have already submitted the file for analysis, our developers will get back to you via email.
Appreciate your patience meanwhile.
Thank you for replying.
I sent it for analysis. Seeing as it was on firefox which i already have uninstalled for months now. Do I need to change passwords, credit cards, etc?
Is my personal information stolen?
Thank you.
