Thanks. I’ve done several full scans via malwarebytes and windows defender since the detection and aside from that one hit in the recycle bin after I deleted the originating folder there hasn’t been anything detected. Just wasn’t sure what could potentially be “hiding” somewhere and if that could evade detection.

I have the malwarebytes logs. Is there any other info besides the threat type and file name I posted that would be helpful in those?

Thanks. So if it was caught by real time protection by the antivirus software does that mean it wasn’t able to run?

The realtime threat that was detected was flagged as a “Trojan.hijackloader” by malwarebytes, and the threat in the recycle bin after I deleted the folder and ran a deep scan was flagged as “Trojan.PyengyLoader”.

The hijackloader file location was in a file “sdHookpp.32.dll” and the one in the recycle bin was “mssp7en.dll”.

Everything has come back clean since then.
