Email from Ebay gives a Trojan Horse Found when opened

Two days in a row I opened Email from ebay@ebay.com (one way) to notify me of a win with an invoice. It is Legit mail. I feel confident these are False Positive. The Info for the first:

File Name: hxxp://maranack.com/documents/?s=577
Maleware Name: JS:Downloader-FT [Trj]
Malware Type: Trojan Horse
VPS version: 091128-0, 11/28/2009

The second one:

File Name: hxxp://kuzibrak.com/documents/?s=572
Malware Name: JS:Downloader-FT [Trj]
Malware Type: Trojan Horse
VPS version: 091128-0, 11/28/2009

I have seen several posting with Ebay in the text, is this a problem that is being worked on? Thanks, Dan

To be sure if that a false positive or a real threat upload the files to www.virustotal.com and post the results here.

Per your request I sent both in and results were the same. It is posted here:

A link to the virustotal page works too… easier to read. Just for future reference. ;D

Looks like they all found nothing. Maybe upload the file to avast so they can add it to their definitions.

Send the sample to virus@avast.com zipped and password protected with the password in email body, a reference to this topic (give URL) and possible false positive in the subject.

You have not sent a file to VT, just some txt file. The alerts are from malicious websites that Avast has blocked. Why are you confident they are FP’s

You should disable the links by changing the http to hxxp

yeah, disable your links ::slight_smile:

I guess that kuzibrak dot com is now being cleansed as I get this there:

As for the maranack (dot) com/documents/?s=577 site, it is most likely infected. See the links below:
