Hello, my antivirus (AVG Internet Security 2013 with latest update) found a virus in a non existent folder and when I try to secure it, it says that I don't have a permission (or something like that, can't remember now). Supposedly infected file is (C:\users\shaulys\appdata\roaming\microsoft\windows\ieupdate\perfmon.exe). But in explorer there's no ieupdate folder (yes, I checked the option to see hidden files). Any idea what's going on?
