Trojan Virus?

Post by R.E.2 »

hi all
i checked my HDs yesterday with a new malware checker (A2 which i downloaded from www.emsisoft.com) and it showed that i had a trojan virus in each of the 3 vers. of spwaw i have. one in each of the Mech exe. files. the report called the virus's - trojan dropper.win32 smorph. i deleted mech exe. files but of course the game wouldn't play. i am not very clued up on comp. programming.
has anyone else experienced this? is it a spyware device added by matrixgames or have i really got caught with a trojan virus.
i have a dual boot system using win98se/winxp and use avast virus checker in win98 and avg v7 in winxp. i use zonelabs firewall for both progs.(i can't get avg v7 to work with zonelabs firewall in win98)
i would be grateful for any advice/info
yours aye

False alert by your malware / spyware checker. That happens.
