Unread post Trojan in Swath 196
i downloaded the new swath to have a look
to my surprise when i extracted the file, i got this:

C:\Program Files\SWATH 1.9.6\is-6KT7D.tmp Gen:Trojan.Heur.RP.9y0aaObtL8lO Deleted 15/11/2010 3:26:09 PM

my antivirus program put it into quarantine and i deleted it shortly after.

anyone else get this ??? first time for me.

also zed's menu has virus activity, which was quarantined by my virus program and deleted later

I think you have a virus problem, and it isn't related to swath.

I installed swath 1.9.6 and there's no virus. I installed it under
linux even, and that trojan file is no where to be found.

You have a virus, it didn't come in swath.

Edit:

According to this:
http://forum.bitdefender.com/index.php?showtopic=20391

It's a false positive.

sing..
my virus program is updated daily.

additional information: it said the original name of the file was: swathreg.exe
frankly, i am not sophisticated enough with computers to make a judgement.
destroy the mutant file and deleted swath.

could be a redirection problem

i tried to download swath196 from the link offered by stien in his post. I could only get part of the download as a report jumped up stating the file swath.... could not be saved. But, it did indeed save part of the download as an .exe (i later discovered)
i dropped that attempt to download from the forum and went to the swath web site and downloaded it successfully from there.
During the unpacking of that download the virus detection was alarmed.

Anyways, running another virus scan as i write

My AV is updated daily (sometimes 2-3 times a day, depending on how busy the folks at Avast are) and d/l'ing Swath gave me no alarms... None of my other anti-worm/trojan/etc software had any complaints with it either...

you should find that ZeD's Menu is innocent as well.. i am not sure that a CTS can carry a virus.
You can refresh your copy from my website.
Version 1.14 available now.
