Unhappy Virus???

Dear users,

Watch out when you use xolox, because my scanner found a virus in xolox
My virus checker Norman, detected the W32/platan.I virus.
Maybe this is a false warning but it can also be a real warning.
This virus is a Trojan Horse Virus.
So when you are connected to the internet, this trojan give the people who created this program access to your computer.
I also scan my computer with Norton antivirus, and see what then the results are.
I hope they are negative.

I use the kaspersky anti virus kit which is very very good IMHO, and it hasn't found a virus or trojan or anything in Xolox. Maybe you downloaded an infected version from a spread-server?

Same Here, I use norman and it detected the same virus. I downloaded this programs from two different sites. The Trojan Virus thats installed is a password catcher and will send your logon info and password back to whoever.....beware

Which sites did you download it from? You should tell the XoloX developers about them.
