Trojan.Gen:<br>
<br>
Risk Level 1: Very Low<br>
<br>
Trojan.Gen is a generic detection for many individual but varied Trojans for which \
specific definitions have not been created. A generic detection is used because it \
protects against many Trojans that share similar characteristics.<br> <br>
This looks like bad heuristics in the virus scanner to me and not like a problem on \
our side.<br> <br>
Unless we are provided with the details of why this "generic detection" finds an \
undefined (that's what&nbsp; "specific definitions have not been created" translates \
to) trojan, the ball is on Symantec's court to be more specific about the \
problem.<br> <span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>

&gt; Hi Flemming,<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Unless other people report this in upcoming hours, I think it is those<br>
