    Who knows, but I quarantined it. By the way, the connection to Lavasoft's reference update server seemed much slower than usual. I wonder if someone is manipulating the connection and injecting this nasty in the update...?

    P.S. TDS3 didn't detect this and it's classified a trojan by NAV2002...

    Heh... NOD32 didn't detect anything at all during the update...

    (Duh! Why download BitDefender when I have F-Prot DOS... :D )

    Edit: No porn in IE favorites. Also, the update didn't seem any slower than normal to me...

    Hi Snook, ;)

    I'm using both ... No flag here ... although I did D/L the latest Ad-aware ref file before the NAV update today ... Did you D/L it before or after todays uodate?

    Did you send the file for testing? or Notify Symantec about it?

    Before the NAV update. When I updated Adaware and started to scan NAV's active protection alerted me of an infection in Adaware. File is in quarantine and I won't send it into Symantec because they will respond with only a generic reply.
