One of our CAD stations refuses to run AutoCAD. He's running ACAD 2007 under XP-Pro. Avast antivirus comes up with win32 malware-gen each time acad.exe is launched, and blocks AutoCAD from launching.
I've never heard of this malware problem affecting AutoCAD before.
A system restore seemed to work OK, but did not eliminate the problem. Right now we're running a full system scan, which will take another hour, but I suspect it will find the virus, delete it, and it will be right back at boot time, because of a root kit or something similar on his PC.
Any ideas?
