    Erik Albert .... Both Virus Total and Jotti make no detection on the tbhook.dll :thumb:

    Quite a few good scanners on both sites .... It was great to see Nod32 there .... Very impressive !!

    As for Trojan Hunter, I most likely will not be renewing my license. :(

    Thx ....

    I had the same experience with TH on a clean system partition, that :
    - has only legitimate softwares with a good reputation.
    - has hardly been on-line
    - has never been used, except for installing software
    Nevertheless, TH reported 3 softwares having a trojan and some of them were reported twice because the installation file was still on my data partition, so I had 5 so called trojans in total on my system. IZArc, ScriptDefender were two of them, I don't remember the other one.
    These f/p's scare you to death about nothing. 4 years back I would have deleted these f/p's and damage my own system. :)

    :mad: Exactly .... not to mention wasting time doing research and trying to convince yourself that they are indeed f/p's :doubt:

    Yes ..... absolutely ..... I agree, but speaking from my experience TH has only produced f/p's in the over 2 years plus since I first purchased it. :(

    As well, I sent Misec Support 2 emails on the latest f/p ..... which have both gone unanswered.

    I have been using AVG (as an example of another anti malware program on my PC) for quite some time now ..... The results are no f/p's and a few minor detections. :)

    I'm not trying to be confrontational here ..... just voicing my experience with TH.

    Thanks for the links. :D
