I ran Avast, SuperAntispyware, and MalwareAnti-Malware. All three programs
indicated my computer being clean......no infections. I then run Windows
Defender, and picked up these two. Trojan Downloader:Win32/ZLOB.ANN, and
Program:Win32/Antivirus 2008. Both were then deleted with Windows Defender.
Why would they show up here, and not in the other three?

Good question.

It would help if you could post the fully qualified names and paths to the files
deemed
infected and removed.

A Windows Defender log extract would help.

Useless. The files can be known by any number of names depending upon
what the AV vendor wants to name it. Having the name posted here
serves no purpose and doesn't answer his question.

>A Windows Defender log extract would help.


Again, useless.

| David,

| If the files are still around wouldn't it make sense to upload to
| virustotal, and or some of the online sandboxes?
