I just downloaded and installed the demo of Alcohol 120%. Then ran NOD32 and it told me that the exe is infected and is a trojan. Scanned disks, directories and files: D:\Program Files\Alcohol Soft\ D:\Program Files\Alcohol Soft\Alcohol 120\start.exe - Win32/TrojanDownloader.Small.GL trojan number of files scanned: 42 number of viruses found: 1 number of viruses active: 1 What am I looking at here? I can't seem to find any info on it. And it's strange that it would come with a trojan from the company itself
http://www.dials.ru/english/www_av/ http://www.kaspersky.com/scanforvirus Try one of those online scanners, or McAfee's or Panda's to make sure that it's not just a false alarm. Are you sure you downloaded Alcohol 120% from the official web site (http://www.alcohol-software.com/)? Also take a look here for a description of some "similar" trojans: http://www.viruslist.com/eng/virusl...001&findWhere=&findTxt=TrojanDownloader.Small
Thx for the help. It all seems to work now. Not sure how it got infected but I deleted and re-installed and no warnings this time.
I very much doubt that there was any trojan on your system, that was probably a false positive by NOD32, I got a similar alert today ,this one reported AD-Aware as containing a trojan, I double checked using Trend Housecall online scanner which reported nothing ....... Time Module Object Name Virus Action User Info 20/05/2004 09:39:00 AMON file C:\Program Files\Lavasoft\Ad-aware 6\Cache\start.exe Win32/TrojanDownloader.Small.GL trojan
okey... Scan you computer and select scan archives and you will propobly detect the same trojan... The cache is the current file ad aware is scanning and nod32 Amon will scan it too... So adaware propobly scanned a file that nod32 scanned and it detect a trojan...
