leemar thanks for the input
however
we were discussing the Virus Total results where many of the other AV’s DO use heuristics

VLK has joined the discussion Monday as predicted

I can remember when we used Norton Utilities to edit these things…

meck, so you’re not talking about the MBR of your hard drive being infected, you’re talking just about the MBR of the pendrive?

Do I understand it correctly?

First all, Vlk, i saw the warning message of nod 32 with the pendrive. Then, i searched a solution. I found that using mbr.exe fixed it but just scanned the Hard Disk. Using mbr.exe the result was:


Stealth MBR rootkit detector 0.2.4 by Gmer, http://www.gmer.net

device: opened successfully
user: MBR read successfully
kernel: MBR read successfully
user & kernel MBR OK

[b]malicious code @ sector 0x12a14c00 size 0x194 ![/b]

I am talking about the mbr of my hard drive, vlk. Apperentely, the pendrive MBR is ok, I just formatted it. :o
