"Haha you are famous now" Steam virus file location detected???

[Duncanois]

Hey guys, first time posting so wassup! Anyways, about a month ago I got a message from one of my friends with the message "Haha you are famous now", followed by a link. Stupidly(REALLY stupidly) I clicked on the link, which took my to a video on the fake vimeo(site was called vidmeo). It told me to download a flash player as I was lacking one. As I had just wiped my hard drive, I thought that I was lacking it, so again, STUPIDLY, I downloaded it, not once, but twice. Anyways, I still couldn't watch the video, so I closed the tab and realised something was wrong when I saw that the same message was sent to all my contacts. I immediately ran a full system scan(using Bitdefender), and detected several trojans, which I supposedly removed successfully. Anyways, all seemed fine and dandy until a month later, when the EXACT SAME message was sent to all my contacts. I did another scan, and this time it picked up a LOCSYZ trojan, which I removed. It's now been about 3 weeks, and nothing's popped up again. Anyways, onto the topic: browsing through my Bitdefender event's log, I notice that there's this one file path that keeps on popping up as a potentially malicious software BEFORE I did the last scan, and I have it posted to IMGUR: http://imgur.com/DbcwsjS (Only pay attention to the right side; the events log you can see was when my friend plugged an infected flashdisk into my pc(successfully removed 3 trojans from that)).

Anyways, I hope this helps those tech junkies out there solve this(I have Windows 10). And for the love of God, DON'T OPEN ANY SUSPICIOUS LINKS! Let me know what you think in the comments!

modified .lnk is not virus. it's the consequences of infection after incomplete cure, to download trojan again
infections spreaded via usb flash can be prevent just by disable some services and make special Software Restriction Polices, it present in all windows

if a lnk points to a virus it is also detected as a virus and since antivirus do not download garbage from the internet to check it, it is local. in other words, probably the a3x in the list. compiled autoit script. what little kiddies use to write their malware. that is why mostly stuff with autoit header is automatically flagged for being a PUP, potentially unwanted program.

as for every virus detection. please format your harddrive and reinstall windows, you do not know if your computer is clean. the antivirus software is the last thing you should trust.

Thanks for the advice, just formatted it recently so got nothing to lose.
