Hello!
Ten days ago or so Ad-Aware 2008 Free found a critical infection (TAI 5), a file called
dsdxirmv.exe, which was located in my Windows folder (C:\Windows\dsdxirmv.exe).
After I googled about it (most articles said it's malware) I formatted my hard disk.
Now I have installed all my programs again and watched carefully if it would appear again.
It did when I installed Cakewalk's Sonar 4 program! Same file, same location, size: 116 KB.
Of course I ran Ad-Aware again (even more than one time) and it found nothing!
I checked the file with anti-virus program too, and it seems clean.
So, I don't know. Was it a false alarm by Ad-Aware's previous definition or was it really infected?
What's with it now? Can I submit this file to you to check it somehow or something?
Thank you!

Yes, but my PC is clean now. I would like to try to install an older definition (November 2008) to try if it will mark my file as dangerous again (false alarm). Is it possible to get some older definition files? Thanx!

That would be something to post in the Ad-Aware Forums
