    hello chaslang
    tonight while l was doing a bitdefender on-line scan, it said it found the trojan peed gen in faststone image viewer/fs plugin02.dll and the dll file was deleted by bitdefender.
    l was shocked as l downloaded the latest version of faststone image viewer from this site last week and wondered if this was a false positive as avg did not find it a couple days ago.
    l would be grateful if you can clarify this.
    thank you

    It's a false positive! If BDO actually removed the file, you will need to reinstall Fastone.
