TROJ_COLLECTOR.A(1) strange report from Housecall

[collydog9]

First of all hello everyone.
System is:
Windows XP Pro SP 2
Sophos Antivirus (June with latest IDE files - must update tomorrow).
Spybot S&D (updated)
Adaware
Trojan hunter (updated today)
Sygate Personal Firewall (+ SP2 firewall enabled)

Trend Housecall has just reported the following:
TROJ_COLLECTOR.A(1) in
C:/WINDOWS/Downloaded Progam Files/ActiveSecurity.ocx

This file does not seem to exist (I have not hidden system files etc.), although perhaps Housecall has quarenteened it?

Housecall cannot remove this file.

I can find no information on this on the web at all.
All my other tools miss it.

Has anyone heard of this?

Thanks in advance.

Please read THIS THREAD

Thanks for that.  Apologies for posting a duplicate thread.

I will assume that the following is correct:

ActiveSecurity.ocx in the downlaoded program files is not harmfull. It is placed there temporary by some online scanners. Could be also other applications that are using that file, but that is unknown to me at this time.

(perhaps I scare too easily!)

[Eddy]

Too my knowledge, that is correct.

hi,
so glad I saw your message, I too recieved the same message last night. Was not sure about it being a virus. It was way too odd. Thanks to your posts and the replies I feel much better now knowing that is well, and I can ignore the message now.


thanks again.
