    Downloaded this twice and nod32 picked up the following.


    Time Module Object Name Threat Action User Information

The file was moved to quarantine. You may close this window.

    Has this ever been reported? Also sorry if I posted this in the wrong place.

    Welcome to Majorgeeks!

    First it does not look like you are downloading Ad-Aware SE Personal from Majorgeeks, so I have to ask why are you making this statement here on Majorgeeks. You should complain to the site you are downloading from. If you download from Majorgeeks, the install program is named: aawsepersonal.exe And you will not need WinRaR to extract it.

    Second it looks to me like what you are doing is trying to download an illegal (probably a cracked version) of Ad-Aware Pro not Personal.

    What you describe is exactly what I downloaded on your site twice. both times NOD32 picked up the file and quarantined it. It was not an RAR type file.
    I am not trying to cause trouble just thought you would want to know. Let NOD32 scan the file and you will see. I tied it for the third time and it was there again. After NOD 32 cleans it you cannot install the program.

    You first message said: C:\Documents and Settings\Barry\Desktop\media\inst_aawsepro.exe

    That is not the samething as aawsepersonal.exe


    Exactly what is the filename that you are scanning.
