            Scan in safe mode, hold down F8 at bootup to get there.
 Cleaning up your temp files might also help, https://www.ccleaner.com!!

            Take off Avira and install Microsoft security essentials0

            Also, you have only run a Malwarebytes QUICK scan.
 It could make a difference.Move along, nothing to see.0

I have run a Malwarebytes quick scan and full scan and no differance, sorry about all the questions but not very techie myself and everyones advise is really appriciated.0

            Hi sorry but could anyne please give me some advise this detection warning is driving me insane thanks0

            See if you can delete this directory manually, and empty the recycle bin
 C:\WINDOWS\Temp\munw.tmp
 Did you do the safe mode scan, and clean up temp?
 If you have, download hijackthis from trendmicro, and post a log.!!

            manually delete in explorer, highlight the directory, hit delete.
