AVG Free & afd.sys problem

mileszew · Mar 2, 2014

Hi, I'm new to the forums and don't know if I'm posting in the right place, if I'm not feel free to move this thread. I am new to such stuff so I don't understand the log stuff or whatever, so if you can please guide me with detail. My AVG detected "Trojan horse Cryptic.DUQ" on afd.sys several times. When I scan my computer I get the "Blue Screen of Death"! This also happened once with TuneUp Utilities. I am on a Windows 7 Home Premium Service Pack 1 32 bit.
Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hi and Welcome to Majorgeeks.

Given that your AV detects a problem with a standard Windows driver and scanning results in a BSOD, I'd suggest you need to get that checked out by the Malware team, study and follow the instructions here: http://forums.majorgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=35407

When you have all the files you need then post in the malware section of the forum here

title it Trojan horse Cryptic.DUQ
and mention AVG detected it then add the attachments.
