Thanks for the explanation Aaron. Curiously the .728 version of Glary Utilities was infected but was undetected by Avast until the .738 and clean version was released. It's still comforting to know that the virus was essentially harmless. -- Knowledge is learning something new every day. Wisdom is letting go of something every day.
Great explanation. Thanks. I assume I do not have the Delphi compiler as I am not a programmer. I believe you are right, in that I probably have a program that contains files written with the Delphi compiler. I scanned those files and they were clean so I guess I can leave them alone.
The original problems I had with this virus were connected to Weather Pulse and Gmail Keeper. Both of these programs have since been updated to a clean version and everything seems ok now.
