Yeserday i did check my computer with NAV.
NAV has found the “Adware.Webprefix”
(Infos here Symantec: Adware.Webprefix and Bitedefender: Trojan.Downloader.6588.E )
But Avast did not found them … !?
Which is your resident antivirus? How do you manage to scan it with NAV?
Send an email with the file (false positive or infected) to: virus@avast.com
You can use Alwil FTP server as a second way to transfer only big files. Upload them to ftp://ftp.avast.com/incoming (please, note that you won’t have READ access to the ftp server, just write - so you won’t even be able to see what you’ve just uploaded). Thanks.
Hi Tech,
Could be the man scanned it with stinger, that is a NAV scanner (corrected = MacAfee free scanner), but non-resident.
No problem. He better not have two resident scanners but then he has a problem.
Here is the info on Webprefix:

Stinger is the similar of avast Cleaner. It’s from McAfee not Symantec ;D
Ok. Fully right. Sorry if I mess anything here :-[
