Virus found in SVNs (1 Viewer)

[mirk]

Hallo

I made a manuall scan of my harddrive after viruses, and my antivirus software fund viruses inside two of the svn files a have downloaded some time ago.
Could this be true?

I use Kaspersky 6.0

detected: Trojan program Trojan-Downloader.Win32.Zlob.yo File: D:\download\MediaPortal-svn--10-15-2006--11-41-Rev11075.exe

can you be sure that it was those files that brought the virus? is there a chance you got a virus and its infected these executables?

Either they got infected on your computer or it's a false positive. All MP files get checked before anything gets published.

(I verified the file MediaPortal-svn--10-07-2006--19-58-Rev10914.exe. The other one doesn't exist as a download.)

Here we go again,

As said before MP does NOT contain trojans/viruses
We are very carefull when distributing a new release and each release
is also verified by SoftPedia to be completely clean of adware/viruses/trojans:

We already posted about this issue before:

So how come your files are infected?
I think:

1) you either downloaded the MP files from an unoffical source
OR
2) These files got infected since your PC was already infected.
