Besttechie Posted March 13, 2005 Report Share Posted March 13, 2005 Hi Oni,I assure you that the HijackThis download on my site is not a virus. Are you using McAfee? There are fixed virus definitions for that. Are you sure you got HijackThis from here? http://www.besttechie.net/tools/HijackThis.exe - thats the correct location. Thanks for RubbeRDuckY for this info:[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.B Quote Link to post Share on other sites
