Does Avast notice this new SpamNet. A Trojan virus ?

Why not look in the virus database to see for yourself?
Avast may call it different. Check with VGREP

I can’t understand only one thing :-\ : why are you so concerned in one virus then were are thousand of others! ;D

Neither me Panda Software sent warning about
SpamNet.A (like they called) by email to me
so that´s why I asked it. Nothing else matters.

AV companies don’t have a standardised naming convention so there are often many different names for the same virus, That is why Eddy gave you a link to VGREP, in this site you can search for SpamNet.A and it will also return the aliases that are used by other companies. Unfortunately it takes time to collate the different names and update their database so new detections are often not in there database.

I understand as well. I searhed SpamNet.A from VGREP but it wasn´t there yet.
