I have been using kaspersky IS 2009 for some time, running under vista.sp2
Most weeks I do a full scan. In addition to a couple of irritating 'vulnerabilities' which (following advice given here) I just ignore it has, for the past few weeks, come up with something that looks to this untutored eye more sinister. It's a virus, shown as:
HEUR.Trojan-Downloader.Win32.Generic
which it says is residing in an administrator Temporary Internet File:
content. IE5/NTRAK0BB\R182272_DellVideoChat_Setup_support.exe
When it's flagged up I carefully quarantine it, but it pops up again the next week. Although i have a dell desktop and use the webcam I don't use DellVideoChat as far as I know, and can't find it anyway. Can't find anything about this in the usual lists of nasties either. Obviously I have looked at TIFs (not there) and deleted all found. Tried sending on the Kaspersky notification link but the e-mail bounced.
Any advice would be welcomed!
