W32/Gltroj.A
 

My AV software auto updated yesterday and the scheduled scan later in the day apparently found 4 infected files which it overwrote and deleted.
The Dynamic virus protection that runs in the background has just isolated and disinfected a file, A0042969.exe, in which it reports finding the same virus.
The four files deleted yesterday are in fact all legitimate files, some have been on the hard disc for over 12 months.
I can find W32/Gltroj.A in the massive list in the software but no description and a search on their website or a Google is fruitless, anyone have any info on this.:confused:

This is the log of yesterday's scan.

Sorry - never heard of it.

Re: W32/Gltroj.A
 

can't find anything either :shrug:

which AV programme is it you are using?

Re: W32/Gltroj.A
 

Command CSAV from Authentium, It has a "virus info" button on the GUI that lists many thousands of virus types and this one is listed but no details, I have searched everywhere but can find no reference. Have e-mailed them with the details, will let you know if anything comes up.
three of the four files deleted are in fact update.exe or setup files for Pest Patrol/ Adaware/ Spybot that have been scanned hundreds of times in the past.
Could be a false positive as I have not opened any attachments for some time.
