I am not wholly amused when false positives turn up. My evidence for this being false is that I run 2 computers with the same software and the same Avast checker. One detected an alleged trojan, the other did not. And moving the "clean" file to replace thje "infected" file caused the "infected" machine's siren to go off, while the "clean" machine remained quiet.
Avast then downloaded a new virus definition file and the whole thing went quiet on me. Not, I may add, before it caused me headaches in wondering what was going on.
The log trace is as follows.
09/09/2005 14:59:20 SYSTEM 1652 Sign of "Win32:Murlo [Trj]" has been found in "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 7.0\Acrobat\Acrobat.dll" file.
The thing is, this trojan was not present. If ithad been then the "clean" machine woudl have noticed it.
