Av.exe
Av.exe is a malicious computer worm which has the ability to self-replicate. There are multiple ways for Av.exe dissemination and once infected, your system may be used as a bot facilitating Av.exe propagation. Av.exe is distributed both as a part of spyware or as a single infection. It may enslave a browser hijacker to show misleading popups and may perform other functions aimed at getting a user's money. Use a proven anti-spyware program to detect and remove Av.exe before it takes over your computer.
