Hello guys,

 

I tried downloading a font and that nasty malware came with it. Avast keeps blocking it from contacting home and states:

Object: hxxp://getusaaall.info

URL:MAL

C:\windows\system32\svchost.exe

 

I have run Farbar Recovery scan tool and attached the logs it produced.

 

Any help will be highly appreciated!

Just an Update, I've installed Kaspersky and after a full scan it cleaned some adware. Ever since avast never hit again and now its disabled.
