    One last check

    Download aswMBR and save it to your Desktop.

    http://public.avast.com/~gmerek/aswMBR.exe

    • Right click aswMBR.exe & choose "Run as Administrator" to run it.
    • Click YES to the prompt to download Avast virus definitions
    • When the virus definitions have downloaded, click the Scan button.
    • Wait till the scan reports "Scan finished successfully"
    • Click Save log & save the log to your desktop.
    • Click OK
    • Two files will be created, aswMBR.txt & a file named MBR.dat
    • Click EXIT.
    • Copy & Paste the contents of aswMBR.txt into your next reply.
    Don't click to fix anything, just post the log
  • Thanks for your help and patience :o

    No problem.

    I was a bit suspicious with you being unable to scan the file at VirusTotal, then being unable to download DDS.

    Submit the file here as a false positive for analysis by AVG
