Please update the AVZ safe database files:

  1. Start AVZ - e.g. from \AutoLogger\AV\av_z.exe or download it from here.
  2. Execute the database update by following the menu Files -> Update database
  3. Close all of the applications and start the Internet Browser you use in your system (for instance, Internet Explorer, FireFox, Opera, etc. – if several are installed on the system - start all of the browsers, so AVZ would analyze all of the plug-ins and extensions used).
  4. In AVZ menu select File – Standard scripts. Select script 8 in the opened window ("Collection not recognized and suspicious files") and click "Execute selected scripts". This should take 1-5 minutes. As a result, the folder LOG will be created inside the AVZ folder containing the archive named virusinfo_files<PC_name>.zip_
  5. Upload this archive according to described here.
  6. If the size of the archive is more than 100 Mb you'll have to upload it to any file exchange server that doesn't require recapture submission (for instance: WeSendIt, Zippyshare) and post the link in your next forum message where help is provided.
