I also use PC-cillin but it never reported anything unusual (not that PC-cillin is an authority on it).

Just curious how the little bugger works, what to look for and how to get it out of my face if need be
When I scanned the zip file, Norton came back with a message saying that the .exe file inside the zip file (and I'm quoting from memory, which may not be perfect) "contains a password-stealing Trojan virus." I went to the link for the website listed for the author and the site is for sale. Now to me, if the guy is no longer in business, and Norton says it's a virus, I'm not going to chance it. I just deleted the zip file and ran a hard disk virus scan, just to be safe.
