Just Updated Adaware and Ad Watch live just informed me of malware Win32TrojanDropperDelf. I see from previous postings in May that a similar thing happened and this was a false positive. Has te same thing happened again with the latest update?

Anders,

Only just seen your post, and in the interim I had updated AdAware AE. No reference to "previous false positive, however possible new one has come up:

Has the same thing happened again and is this another false positive?

I have exactly the same problem. I just downloaded the new update and Adaware is still finding this file. I am correct in thinking that this is definitely a false positive? I thought it would disappear after the update but unfortunately it wasn`t the case.
Any suggestions as to what to do next? AVG doesn`t find anything when i scan the system so I am more than a little bit confused!! smile.gif
