I don't know if anyone can help me, but I opened up IE yesterday and Avast! found a virus (in my recovery partition, no less) in BAE.dll. It was listed as Win32:Adware-gen [Adw]. I first put it in the virus vault but then decided to delete it. Did another scan, and it was back. I deleted my temporary internet files of both IE and Firefox and ran a third scan over night and nothing was detected.
Does this seem strange? Is the adware still there even though it wasn't detected after the third scan? Would deleting my temporary internet files (which I hadn't done in a while) really get rid of this problem? Why was this adware showing up in my D:\\ drive (recovery partition)?
Should I be concerned?
JP, I thought maybe you could help...
