Default Virus?


Hello all
I hope someone can point me somewhere helpful

I am running EZAntivirus version 6.1 with todays updates - no virus detected
Whilst feeling paranoid I Went to Trend Housecall -again NVD

BUT booting into DOS F-prot found Win32/N-Dii.B and successfully deleted
it. My question is - what was it?

I have checked out Trend and Frisk virus databases and found nothing

Neither did a google turn up anything

My guess is it was a false positive but I will probably never know,
having been overhasty with the delete option

Very many thanks for your information Kurt
Now that my son is home from Uni I have to be extra vigilant :-(
Seriously though, score 1 : 0 F-prot vs eTrust
