Virus??
« on: May 28, 2008, 07:59:08 am »
Hi
I just tried to open my Winmx after a few days not using it, and my Avast antivirus pops up saying there is a trojan  "Win32:Trojan-gen {Other}"  in Winmx - any help on this one please? Is it a false alarm or is there some known problem? I haven't actually downloaded anything on winmx recently.

Hi Paul you seem to be suffering from the same malday as this fellow.

Rest assured this is a false positive.

Thanks very much. I shall report to Avast to help the cause! Let's hope they put it right soon.

Indeed, thank you Paul.

Unfortunately this has become something of a regular occurrence with some AV companies, if in doubt always check the file hashes match those at the download site.

Thanks again  8)
