The other night, I had a bit of a scare when I was on memegenerator, clicked on My Page, and was redirected to a strange URL and got a pop up from AVG saying that some sort of "Black Hole Kit" was blocked. Later that night, a number of Trojans were detected, so I immediately went into safe mode and did a System Restore. After that, AVG found a "Generic26" Trojan, which, I was surprised to see was supposedly quarantined. I deleted that, ran a few system scans and came up empty. I thought I was in the clear, until today when I randomly got a little pop up that said "preparing to copy" and then "copying 59 items" before it quickly disappeared. I don't know exactly what that was about, but I'm really hoping it's not what I'm thinking. I turned off my computer, and now I don't really know what to do. Any advice?
EDIT: I believe I got the help I needed from Avast's forum, so this can be locked. Btw, if anyone needs help with virus removal I highly recommend that forum. They are very knowledgeable and have helped me out a lot on two occasions.
