krewk Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 Hi everybody!Yesterday i got unpleasently surprised by my antivirus (NOD32, with latest updates), suddenly it just popped up telling me that the RARSlayer v1.0 (that i dl´d from here some months ago) did contain "probably a variant of Win32/Spy.Agent trojan", so i deleted both the rarslayer exe file and the rar file that contained rarslayer. I "googled" the virus name, and there where several hits, mostly they said it was a keylogger or a dropper. It made me a bit worred since i have lots of accounts on diffrent websites and i use my internet bank, and i don't want my passwords to be stolen.So finally to the question :P , has anyone else of you people had this trojan warning, is it really something to be worried about or is it just one of those patchers that have that kind of "virus like" behavior in order to work properly?Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But anyhow, as you wrote myidisbb, it's probably safe.Thanks for the help, it made me feel a little less worried :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
