Trojan? #55

Open yarnwitch opened 11 years ago

Apparently leaves Trojan-Dropper.Win32.Daws.avzv. Detected by Kaspersky. In the few places I've found this online, Kaspersky seems to be the only program picking this up. Is it an error then? What's going on please?

I have heard this before from other Kaspersky users; I believe it is a false positive. I have compared the md5 sum of the file on the official download location with a private copy on my own computer. The hashes match, meaning they are indeed the same file and the server has not been hacked. I'm in the process of getting this removed from Kaspersky's databases.
