Exploit:HTML/Repl.D

I am currently running Norton Internet Security (including anti-virus, anti-spyware, etc.), and just upgraded to 2010 when my subscription ran out. Recently I experienced a problem downloading files attached to hotmail account, and Word was also freezing up so I suspected a virus or something. I ran a full scan (have scheduled scans running on a schedule), and it showed some tracking cookies but that was it. I ran Windows One Livecare from the Internet (had previously used this on my work laptop), and it showed the Exploit:HTML/Repl.D malware. However, it did not have an option to fix it, and the information about the malware suggested running up to date anti-virus to fix it. I ran another Norton scan in Safe Mode, which did not detect it.

How can I get rid of this malware?

Thanks,

Carol

 

what is the reported location of the malware? if in the temp folder(s) then empty them (including browser cache)

 

As the name suggests, its only an exploit. Clear the browsers cache and that should solve your problem.
