Are your registry and data backed up?

Hmmm, mcafee detects this as a W32.Generic.worm!p2p
Anybody else get this??

 

[ftechguy]

update: just tried all the links and they get detected as this worm also. So should be just a false positve and not some trojan put in hijack this's place...

The latest from Merijn;-

"[Update] It seems McAfee is detecting the new HijackThis version as W32/Generic.worm!p2p. It is not the first time this happened and probably not the last time either. There is no virus in HijackThis. McAfee incorrectly detects the PE compression method I use on all of my programs as a generic Kazaa worm. I will try to contact McAfee about this and see if the incorrect detection can be removed in their next update.
[Update 2] Success! McAfee has put out new definitions that no longer detect HijackThis 1.99.1 as a virus. ^_^ "
