Default Interesting

Look what the latest database update to the Cleaner www.moosoft.com found

Filename Trojan Action
-----------
e:\DOWNLOADS\Filesharing Clients\Gnutella Clients\xolox.exe Chatspy Cleaned (Backup)
------------


Chatspy trojan hmmm.... False positive? I'm not sure where I got the .exe but I think it was from the official site right after xolox came back to life. Chatspy was added aug 7 to the cleaner database.

i just ran the cleaner and it picked it up in two programs, xolox.exe and imorpheusinstall.exe. it pulled them out of a folder i use to store pgms - and it also yanked them out of grokster, where i share them.

new to me...but lately the cleaner's been doing a ton of updates.

thanks for the heads-up AweShucks.

I also got it in unfuck wma.exe as well.
alot of different proggies here, it might be a false positive but I deleted all the files anyway and downloaded clean ones.

From the Xolox official site

AweShucks, you should check out Shareaza and Bearshare (after rejecting it's add-ons). They seem to have surpassed XoloX as far as Gnutella clients are concerned.

Thanks Napho

I do use Shareaza now over xolox I only downloaded the new one out of pure curiosity to see if the newest one came with a xtra perk
