Trojan.Dropper was found on my home computer (Detected only when running three scanners SAS-scanning all files with MBAM Protection and avast all shields turned on).
It was not detected by running two scanners at same time MBAM Protection turned on and scan with avast.

First: this should be in a topic of its own as it isn't related to the Subject of "what to do if a trojan is found in system restore?"

Second: given the fact that this is a cracked program, excluding the legal/moral issue of using cracks, they are a high risk strategy as they frequently come with their own unwanted friends. So I would hazard a guess that the detection is good.
