AndyManchesta Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 Thanks for the heads up Andavari EZ Antivirus just removed it on mine when I opened the SpywareBlaster folder CA's Description is "Win32/Unknown may be reported when eTrust Antivirus uses advanced heuristic techniques to proactively detect a new parasitic Win32 platform file infector" Its also showing the same on Virus Total after scanning the sbautoupdate.exe file eTrust-Vet (Version 12.4.2160) (Date 04.12.2006) (Result = Win32/Unknown) Ive sent the info to CA and Javacool so hopefully they can get it removed soon.

Moderators hazelnut Posted April 12, 2006 Moderators Share Posted April 12, 2006 Thanks so much Andavari for that warning otherwise I would have been worried. I not only got the warning you said for Spywareblaster, it said it found the same thing in a Scansoft product I have and in system volume, restore, all at the same time, 2 of which it hasn't deleted, just said they were infected.

I wonder why it didn't delete it? Do you think that it was another false/positive?

I just got the same thing now. It can't delete it because it's in a system restore point. I think that it's another false/positive, but I'm going to delete my restore points and make a new one just in case.
