Win32/Amalum is a new thread in your computer which slow down your computer. Its not a virus but a false positive result from CA Antivirus which they should fix on the next update.

The main symptoms of the Win32/Amalum is:

PC almost takes 5 minutes to load fully before it can utilize any applications. Additionally, audio and video is so slowed down and slurred that it is impossible to do anything. Internet has recently slowed to a crawl as well and this seemed to be the last function to go.

Moreover the file containing the win32/Amalum is popping up in virus scan upon startup. Also, when the computer is being restarted, there is a command window that loads titled “winlogoo.exe that has a hyper cursor that jumps all around the window. Click “X” to close it out and receive a message that states error: cannot be completed…but the window closes anyway.

FIX: You can fix it by getting the files out from quarantine or you need to repair your windows with Windows Installation Disk.
