Hi,
There is a new site and program. It has only been on the Internet for a week. The product is called PowerProISO and it was suppose to be designed to help you create Bootable DVDs. It's a virus. It is unknown to Norton. Norton warned me due to its history and the fact that I had set Sonar at High. It also blocked it at 97% of the download.
However, it did damage. The first thing I tried when it starting installing Avast Antivirus was to stop the download in my Opera browser (didn't stop). Next, I tried stopping it in the Task Manager (didn't work). Next, I tried to uninstall Avast and PowerProISO and it wouldn't uninstall. Next, I restarted my HP Pavillion and hit the "F11" key and got into the Rescue menu.
I selected the Advanced option and tried to Restore to the last restore point before the install. It failed to restore because the virus damaged the restore points. Next, I selected Restart in the menus and then option "4" to boot into Safe Mode. In Safe Mode, I was able to uninstall the Avast and the PowerPro ISO. I ignored the message stating that Windows Security Service was turned off. Next, I restarted and booted into Normal Windows. This WORKED.
The Avast Antivirus and PowerProISO were gone. Next, I found the files I downloaded and deleted them. Next, I went into the Opera browser and deleted the downloads and the entire history, cookies, etc...Closed the browser. Next, I had Norton run a Scan and no viruses were found. Empty the recycle bin. All is fine now. Maybe this is a Malware. I don't know but wanted to advise the public.
