Virus in SetupImgBurn_2.5.8.0.exe ?

Hi,

I have been a user of ImgBurn previously, and I love it.  So much so that when my HP laptop suffered a blue screen of death, it on my list of 'software to reinstall' when I bought a new PC

 

I have had, though, from two mirror sites a virus alert from BitDefender - "Adware.Agent.PQM" and it halts the download.

 

Some points :

 

1. I've looked through the forum for any notes on virus'.  With that, to preempt anything else :-)

2. I can confirm I downloaded the correct file (not a random tricking you into clicking on another file)

3. It doesn't reference OpenCandy as a PUP, which I know I could overrule

4. I still have a copy of SetupImgBurn_2.5.7.0 which I scanned with Bitdefender and it came up as completely clean.  It doesn't look like it's OpenCandy though, FYI.

 

Has anyone else seen this problem ?  I'm loath to risk "it's just OpenCandy", as I've not had OpenCandy issues with other apps, and looking up Adware.Agent doesn't make for happy reading.

 

Cheers

Steve
