  • Virus detected upon download !!!

    Hi,

    Everytime when iam downloading the latest version i get the following message from kaspersky 6 :

    detected: adware not-a-virus:AdWare.Win32.Shopper.r URL: http://mirror8.disc-tools.com/getfil...ream//data0050

    I tried numerous times both through mozilla and IE7 both up-to-date whit latest ms-patches for my xp pro sp2 x64 edition os!!

    I wont accept the file for now untill i know for 110% sure its safe!! In the meanwhile ill post onsite kaspersky to
    know more about this!!

    regards,

    You can read?
    detected: adware not-a-virus:AdWare.Win32.Shopper.r

    Also it should be well known that Daemon Tools comes with optional adware since v4.0.

      Yes, Copytrooper is right: it is opt-out installation - means you can simply remove corresponding checkbox ("ad sponsor module").

        Hello,

        Ofcourse its not the first time i found adware in certain applications when using customize install.

        But i was freaked out when kaspersky for the FIRST time detected as such in the latest release wich is/wos 4.12.1.

        I didnt got an warning from kaspersky eve never before downloading previous DT releases !!

        Thats why i was caution, but i have cleared this up at kasper HQ by now. And it appears kasper uses more agressive means of detection so it seems!

        Thanks for the input,

        kabster,
