Might there have been copious amounts of bubble wrap in this particular image? I may or may not be familiar with it...

This is ATOT. Here the pics have the Trojans in them. Keeps the *ahem* "stuff" from getting on the screen or keyboard.

Good question:confused:

I am using the free antivir but will probably use somethign else in the future. The pictures i nthat folder were all being accessed by itunes when the alarm went off.

Apeparantly the weekly scans were not enough.

AVG didn't find anything in it, though that is AVG. What's the filesize? I've got 541,950bytes, checksum of 580ff7175e2ab750f5705cde72a51b6c

the file is gone; btw, I would recommend antivir over avg anyway. avg isn't garbage by any means, but antivir spanks it.


<---hopeful to get the aol kapersky freebie antivirus thingy

Is your AntiVir Guard active? Cause Antivir picked up on it right away.

Well this particular file is from 2005. :)

AntiVir Guard - you mean the auto-protect feature?
