    I have been using Index.dat Analyzer (downloaded from MG) for some time, and recently a scan with A-Squared indicated the downloaded install executable is infected with :
    Trojan.Win32.Obfuscated!IK
    I quarantined it, and re-downloaded the latest version from MG. Same thing, and now it also shows up in system restore. I have quarantined both instances for now.
    Has anyone else had this trojan show up, with either A-Squared or any other scanner? Could it be a false positive?

    We scan all our downloads to make sure they have no malicious items. I suspect that A-squared is giving you a false positive.
