    Resolved [RESOLVED] Trojan report after getting an update

    Hi there,

    This morning I installed an update for the 'malicious software remover' thing from MS, but seconds after installing, AVG reported a trojan on lsass.exe.
    I didn't do anything because I know that file is vital.
    But I'd like to know if anyone else experienced this?

    It's just that I don't know whether this is a bad update or just a lucky virus that installed itself after an update.

    Thanks

    Well I went looking for the warning log and found out the file was located in WINDIR\Cursors.
    Seems it was a pretty well timed virus.
    Although thanks for the idea.
