2Flyer Screensaver Builder Pro - when I attempted to install this, my Bit Defender Security flagged 4 attempts to load a trojan - thankfully quarantined.  Whilst this might be a false alarm, I would urge anyone downloading and installing it to proceed with caution.

Thanks Colin.

>> Whilst this might be a false alarm

Makes you wonder - I know when I did a full system scan the other day the amount of stuff flagged up as unsafe by Avast was ridiculous.  I knew the items were OK.  TBH I think we are now getting to silly stupid phase where just about anything and everything is flagged up.
This has a downside..  and can make the user trigger happy... which will lead to peple just going 'yes, yes, yes' without even looking

I sent the quarantined files to Bit Defender and also to PrevX and both have now confirmed that they were correctly identified.

At this point I should declare that my business partner was the founder of PrevX, and I am NOT trying to hawk their product - it can actually be downloaded and installed for free for personal use.

Worrying though, about GAOTD.

I was reading through the user comments for that application, and I must say they mostly seem favourable, so it's probably your defence systems being a little over sensitive.
