This morning a pop-up warning appeared from a screen-saver scan - Canon/ZoomBrowser.exe. This has never appeared before and the program has not been run for several months.
It showed up on both the C: drive and on the back-up E: drive which again has not been used for several months.
A scan of both says Win32:Malware-gen. Is this possibly a false positive?
Yes, me too. I just wasted an hour this morning trying to re-install Canon Zoombrowser from CD only for Avast to delete it again. Setting the ZB program up in global exclusions doesn’t seem to work either - duh!
