Avira scan - virus found?

Options
Avira Scan found the following items:-

Is the TR/Jorik.SpyEyes.AC file name
C:\googlemapp.exe\googlemapp.exe at 13.01

Is the TR/Jorik.SpyEyes.AC file name C:\Users\pat\A...\0.6163937642722526.exe at 13.54

Quarantined both items, but when checked on Avira no info & couldn't really find anything on the internet.

Is this serious & if so esp as its appeared twice in 30 mins? Has it got into my laptop's system?

Also have two other items in quarantine - do I just leave them there or do I delete them, whats the best option?

    I would run malwarebytes and hijackthis log to ensure avira has picked everything up: (instructions by alienRIK):


    Download MALWAREBYTES (Make sure you click 'DOWNLOAD LATEST VERSION')
    http://www.filehippo.com/download_ma..._anti_malware/
    Open malwarebytes and goto UPDATE and click 'check for updates'. After its updated goto SCANNER and click PERFORM FULL SCAN then click SCAN
    Remove everything thats found (needs to be ticked)
    Post the COMPLETE log here AFTER youve deleted everything it finds


    reboot

    Download HIJACK THIS (Make sure you click 'DOWNLOAD THIS VERSION')
    http://www.filehippo.com/download_hijackthis/2894/
    Click MAIN MENU then DO A SYSTEM SCAN AND SAVE A LOGFILE(Takes seconds) then post the log so we can see whats running
    (do NOT do anything else with Hijack but scan and post the FULL log)

    The quarantined files are stored in C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Avira\AntiVir PersonalEdition Classic\INFECTED\

    It's a good practice to keep the files in quarantine for some time and if you don't see any problem it means there's nothing important and you can delete them.
