Re: Cannot remove virus
Pagefile.sys is a virtual memory file. Normally the size of pagefile.sys is around 1.5 times of your physical memory size.
Google shows many instances of Avast and false positives with regards to pagefile.sys, going back several years. Many Avast users add it to their exclusion list.
