    That's the actual file there. It'll be something like: install_flashplayer10_mssd_aih_2.exe

    You must have installed Adobe's FlashPlayer. The file is an installer file and is an archive in the form of a self extracting executable (.exe) which must be encrypted.

    You've probably got a whole load of files avast can't scan like:

    adobe/images/bgButtonFinished.png
    adobe/images/bgDownloadBarError.png
    adobe/images/bgHeaderError.png
    adobe/images/buttonLeft.png
    adobe/images/buttonRight.png

    ...etc.
    Hi Guys, thanks all. I seem to be off this blog, then all hell breaks loose and I,m on nonstop with probs.
    It dawned on me last night that It occurred just after I used CCleaner to clean temp files/browser history +registry. Do it so often, and IE too,and the last thing before I did that was reinstal Flash player.
    There were 44 items fixed in the registry. Would these be the Passworded files, saved when fixed by CCleaner??
    I did Adobe and Java too, and they are there.
    No idea about my passwords being changed.
    2 in one day is curious;;;;:beer:
