You need access, always best to have access.

I'm the new kid on the block, and basically a Windows guy to boot. I've been fiddling with microcomputers since I built my first computer in 1978 - a 6800CPU, 1K static RAM, 6-digit 7-segment display, 24-key HEX keypad, with 75 baud audio cassette "Mass Storage" - all programming in machine code. But for the last 25 years or so it's all been Windows. I'm afraid I have to bump it higher up the food chain.

P.S. I'm running that ESET online scanner right now. Want to bet on whether I'll have to "rescue" my IP & port scanners, remote control software, etc. AGAIN because they're detected as hacking tools?

Been using eset for over 10 years and have never got anything ever. It is the best around I done months of checking for the best and eset came up everytime

The LAST time I ever got infected was Chernobyl/CIH back around 98/99. But I've de-gunked infected computers that had current up-to-date versions of just about every AV program I've ever heard of. I don't remember ever having to disinfect one with ESET, though. So you may very well be right about it's being the best. Even so, I don't trust ANY of them 100%.

It took me 3 days to manually kill the first copy of one of those Fake AV/Security trojans I saw. When my son caught it, he must have been one of the very first victims. Absolutely NOTHING on Google when he asked me to fix his computer, but stuff started showing up later in the day. Nothing that helped kill it, but lots of complaints about it. No AV program could even detect it, let alone kill it. 3 alphabet soup processes all crosschecking each other - even in safe mode, started from odd places in the registry. And impossible to kill them all in task manager before the last one would start a couple more. I had to pull his HD and TRY to find them all, without a good way to search for alphabet soup. Miss one, stick his HD back in his machine, and they all came back. PITA!!!! About the time I finally killed it, the special-purpose tools started coming out from the AV companies.

Edit: I will add that, once done cleaning, making changes, don't forget to change your sites cookie prefix in the config.php file, that always helps. Also - Be sure to run a scan on your PC as well for viruses and malware, your regular anti-virus should work fine and I would install and run either Spybot Search and Destroy (some prefer MalwareBytes, I do not for a good reason I will not list) and for advanced users HiJack This is also a great program (DO NOT USE UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING! I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH WITH HIJACK THIS!!!!!!).

Those links should help sort you, there are others online as well including one forum who had a very detailed post on how to remove it but I can't locate it in my bookmarks (sorry! Need to clean them up lol).
