Can I delete or quarantine it, or is a program using it, I KNOW it's a trojan...

...but how did it get past my firewall? Oh, I found it quickly enough, but that wasn't the point.

The point is, how did it get in there in the FIRST PLACE?!

This is all the info I have right now:

C:\WINDOWS\Downloaded Program Files\FP_AX_CAB_INSTALLER.exe


Could someone tell me what this is? I don't know if a program I downloaded (From a clean site) needs it to function, or if it needs to get quarantined.

Thanks

It seems to be related to Adobe Flash player, so I wouldn't quarantine it

Oh, okey. I'm not sure I LIKE it there, but there isn't much I can do if a program needs it. Zone Alarm found it, and gave a shout-out, so I thought I'd better check it before I did anything else.

Thanks. I'm still open to suggestions. laughing.gif
