I was just checking my scan logs and found that it had detected a threat:
On Demand Scan at 5am 5/22/08 found:
C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\The Sims 2\TSBin\Sims2.exe - probably a variant of Unknown virus - unable to clean
And a Real-Time Scan found:
5/22/2008 9:55:00 AM Real-time file system protection file C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\The Sims 2\TSBin\Sims2.exe probably a variant of Unknown virus unable to clean NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM Event occurred during an attempt to access the file by the application: C:\PROGRA~1\ESET\ESETNO~1\egui.exe.
Today I went to http://virusscan.jotti.org/ and checked the file and here are the results:
~Jotti result removed per Policy. (http://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=180057) - Ron~
All Nod32 scans since (daily) have come up with no problems
Could this be a false positive due the the 3119 update issue?
I submitted the file through the program "submit file" option
I have had problems with other software detecting MANY false positives that is why I switched to NOD32, this is the very first problem that NOD32 has detected in over a year
Here is the HijackThis Scan I just ran
