Topic: Virus found in Version 0.4.2.3 ?

My Avira Antivir Scanner found in the version 0.4.2.3 the Trojan Horse TR/Crypt.Cfi.BE

Can anyone test this with another Scanner?

The MD5sum of my Version seems to be wrong.

It's probably a false positive, this Crypt.Cfi is a generic test, .BE dosen't exist : http://www.avira.com/en/threats/section … i.gen.html

We will do some tests soon. There is nothing strange in the public xpi for the moment.

eTrust don't detect anythings.

I'm using Avira Antivir as well and I'm getting a virus alert.

Re: Virus found in Version 0.4.2.3 ?

FireGPG HASEN'T ANY VIRUS. It's a problem with Avira, Crypt.Cfi is a heurisitc test (based on the comportement I suppose) and he suppose that FireGPG is a Trojan.

I have contacted Avira to know why there is that problem.

Ok, the problem is hstart.exe (for hide commands windows). Lasted version (8/8/07 smile who is now signed) dosen't have this problem.

Update coming soon, 13GMT+1

It's a false positive :

Just note: this thread is not about version 0.4.2.3 but 0.4.3.
It was only small typo in News, already fixed.
