Virus in SetupImgBurn_2.5.8.0.exe ?

[drsteveash]

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

Why not try the direct site instead of mirrors?

OK - and looks ok.  Beware then, folks, the mirrors could be corrupted.

 

Cheers
