JamesTw Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 I've downloaded the updated 10.1 file for EMC10 and was about to re-install onto my recently upgraded PC. Kaspersky reports the following file as a trojan and instantly deleted the file. The file is called Win32.agent.zan I'm assuming this is a false positive but does anyone know if the file is needed or not during the installation?

slagrange Posted August 19, 2008 Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 is this file a virus/trojan? GOOGLE_TOOLBAR\GTInstXPESN.exe our landeskAV(kaspersky) flagged it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grandpabruce Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 It's a false positive. Disable Kapersky, prior to installing, as should be done when installing ANY software. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesTw Posted August 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 grandpabruce Thanks for the confirmation. I never thought to disable kaspersky prior to the installation as I usually do, and got this trojan report. Just thought I'd check in case?

Brendon Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 KAV 7, fully updated, reports \google_toolbar\gtinstxpesn.exe as containing 'Trojan-Downloader.Win32.Agent.zan' Google Toolbar? I always thought that was a trojan downloader!! Brendon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brendon Posted August 20, 2008 Report Share Posted August 20, 2008 You'd have to ask Kaspersky. I would think it isn't, but the installer may have some code in it which is close to the signature used by Kaspersky for Trojan-Downloader.Win32.Agent.zan.

Question
JamesTw
I've downloaded the updated 10.1 file for EMC10 and was about to re-install onto my recently upgraded PC.
Kaspersky reports the following file as a trojan and instantly deleted the file.
The file is called Win32.agent.zan
I'm assuming this is a false positive but does anyone know if the file is needed or not during the installation?
