    The NOD32 ID's rar self Execs as "SdBot.AIG trojan " it's due to misID the winRAR Default.SFX (SFX parameters) in the Self Executable Algorithm of WinRar 3.0.

    Better fix it soon since it's getting quite annoying. :)

    Yes this makes the third thread about this trojan being detected, these false positives are getting old.

    I scanned some other winrar files and didn't come up with this warning.

    I'll back off on calling this a false positive for now.

    I deleted the file in the screen shot just in case! :D :cool:

    If you are in doubt trying going to www.virustotal.com and letting them scan it. They use like 12 different scanners, including NOD, KAV, Panda, NAV, and a bunch of others. Its just a single file scan though similar to KAV's

    Guys, what version of WinRAR do you use? NOD didn't pick up a SFX archive created by WinRAR 3.30.

    Ron,
    thanks for pointing me to that link. Anyway, I wonder if NOD reports the trojan on any SFX archive you create using WinRAR 3.30, or only this particular one.

    That is the only file of that type that alarms for me. All the other winrar files are okay.

    To all who have been having troubles with that fp - please update your NOD32 to the most current version 1.815 which has the fp remedied.

    NOD32 found the same trojan in the official tweakxp pro v2 and v3 setup files
