Hey,
Recent virus outbreak is false:
Recently a couple of virus-scanners have been reporting the following programs: - Backgrounddownloader - WoW patch executables
The listed programs are reported to have the following malware: - Trojan-PSW.Win32.WOW - R/PSW.WOW.RG.3 - Trojan horse PSW.Generic4.TUV
Don't be alarmed, it seems some virus-scanners have been falsely listing these files as malware. To resolve this check the link.
Yours sincerely, MVP Schwick (Europe)

AVG marked it as a trojan too.
Thanks, got a bit scared tbh... :-s
Very much appreciated. You got the answer before I even got the news of virii outbreak, and what better place to find the information than here!
Using ActiveVirusShield here...
wasted liek 6 hours trying to find the source of this crap yesterday, ran a bunch of online scanning tool and snti-spyware tools...
Well, I'm happy it was a false positive, I won't have to reinstall my Windows and don't have to worry about my password.
