Trojan.Generic, FILE, C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Extension Manager\Resources-zh_TW.dll, 4188092

 

I followed the option to repair the infected files and was given "Failed" response on both. I scanned both files with Avast Internet Security v12.3.2280 (build 12.3.3154.23), engine and def v161121-0 and both were deemed clean. When a dll file is infected, I have never been able to mouse-over the file in the directory. This did not happen with these files.

Check out my post of a day or so ago. (I just whitelisted it after following Iobit's recommendations.)
