Trojan.generic.ff-1

[vjp2.at]

I don't think I have run antivirus on this laptop for a long while. After a
facebook spam, I just ran (shutting off power management) it and it found
"trojan.generic.ff-1" in unexpanded files i386/dhcpmon.dl_ explorer.ex_ and I
just want to be sure this isn't caused by the unexpanded underscore format.

PS, might you tell me where are the reliable places to investigate such
things because I searched online but found mostly duds (ie, sites which make
it look like the worst problem in the world which only they can solve)

I suspect false positives.

Submit the file(s) to online submission scanners like virustotal.com
jotti.org or virscan,org and post a link to the results.

I suspect false positives.

Ditto.

I should also state that needed information was left out like what is the un-named anti
malware software that declared "trojan.generic.ff-1" ?

Stop spamming here.

I finally turned off power management and ran a full scan.
My hunch is they are false positives.
I ran this scan because of the facebook spam.
I can't vouch for it,
but I may have had the identical virus report a year ago.
