I’ve run into a combination of malware and want to be sure that all is clear. Ran MBAM (log below) as well as a full anti-virus scan and came up with y.exy, emold, acrord32, and zbot. Many seemd to have been blocked by Norton, but am particularly concerned that the y.exy file (which I can't find) made “modifications” to my computer. I'd like to be sure there were no security changes made. I’ve read on some sites that a system reinstall may be necessary to be sure – is that the case?
Thanks for your help!
First indication of trouble came from Norton Internet Security – here are the logs (note info is by category and in reverse chrono order):
