Sometimes a pic works better.
Hope it gets repaired soon.

Google that malware name...could be a false positive.

Still, thanks for the alert.

Im not going to Google anything.

I think I have done the responsible thing, and thats to alert the community.
Perhaps someone might offer to zip up and send me the fixes.
I would really like to get Maddys addon working

Well now, who is to say the files sent to you by another who is using the file is not infected....perhaps their AV did not catch this trojan and it now resides on their hard drive. Then, you get the virus anyway. A quick GOOGLE indicates that Avast does catch this malware were others did not. Hence the suggestion to dig further using Google or any search engine you wish. PM Maddy and advise what you found or do you feel you have done enough

I couldn't find anything on TrendMicro about "Win32 Trogen-gen(Other) Virus/Worm/VPS version 090601-06/12009"

Also I downloaded these FOTRS files recently myself and they came through clean and with no malware or trojans. I am not sure what he is seeing but TrendMicro says the downloads are fine.

Reading more on this issue and Avast it would seem to be a false positive. It is also a generic name for a possible Trojan. It does not mean that something is not there however. So, attempt a download from another who has this file and see if the file contains the same.

As mentioned in my first post.I PM'd Maddy first before posting this thread.
Thanks everyone
Cheers,RDDR
