Not sure if it is real or not - but this morning my virus definition table was updated, but this seems to be the only file that has been affected. So far, anyway. I did a quick search of the forums and found that others have experienced something similar.

Not a very informative post; I assume there was an illustration that shed more light. But I'll take a stab from the text. There is a virus definition somewhere in Europe that was giving false positives from one of our files; their error not ours. We contacted them to get it resolved. Either this is an old update, or a repeat occurance, or I'm assuming the wrong issue. . C. D. Tobie WW Product Technology Mngr. Digital Imaging & Home Theater DataColor.com CDTobie@...

sorry an anti spam anti virus blocker must have intercepted the image of the screenshot. I've attached it as a jpg image to see if it gets through. In short, Avast virus scanner tagged printfix pro.exe as a trojan. The date stamp on the file changed to September 27th 2008, 11:48 AM so I am not sure if it is infected. _____

In short, this is a bogus call; a false positive. Ignore it, or complain to your virus software provider... Or get a Mac so you don't have to deal with such stuff! <G> C. D. Tobie WW Product Technology Mngr. Digital Imaging & Home Theater DataColor.com CDTobie@...
