Hello Brede,
Thank you for contacting AVG community,
I apologize for the inconvenience caused. Could you please share us the screenshot of MS Defender and AVG Internet Security scan results so that we could check and assist you further. Please ensure that the AVG program has the latest patches applied to it.
Open AVG program - click on refresh icon beside virus definitions, at bottom left corner - Restart computer after successful update & check.
Let us know if it helped.
Awaiting your response.
On regular checking with MS Defender as a "complementary/redundant" security "barrier" I have "initiated recommended actions" to remove the following threats, which tend to reoccur at infrequent intervals:
HackTool.Win32/BrowserPassview (dominat) and HackTool.Win32/Wirekeyvew (sometimes)
As AVG is the "primary barrier" I am concerned these threats are not at all detected, only during the occasional "double-checks" with MS Defender, which means I have no overview of how long these threats (marked as "severe" by Defender) have been "lurking" in my system(-s? I have a multi-user license) and who and what they are used by and for?
The latest (re-)occurence was detected today during another Defender scan, and checking with AVG still "no problems"? This does not exactly instill a high level of confidence in my "security" programs and "level", so any ideas on how to be secure apart from being totally disconnected from the internet is welcome, as "security" seems more and more like a fantasy with the escalating cybercrime.
