Version: UBCD4Win 3.10
"My Avast detected a WIN32 Trojan Virus in a file named ".. erase...erase...""
Pros: Sounded like something I really need and had good reviews, lots of downloads...but when I was installing my Avast security program detected a virus that said trojan horse and the end of the file name had the words "erase" in it a couple times
Cons: Trojan Horse Virus detected using Avast. Was using this to fix other computer...the last thing I need is a virus!!!!!! And it would only let me install it to C:\ directory, not to other directory. Not very nice for people to do this. What's the purpose?
Cnet says spyware free - can't it screen for virus? Why didn't other installing this get it? I'm screwed if this computer messes up.

Because BartPE uses ipscan, they get a false positive from many antivirus programs. You should tell all scans to ignore the ubcd install directory. This is not spyware. It is a tool that can be used for hacking purposes but it, by itself, is harmless. Besides, antivirus programs always give more false positives than they should because it drums up business. They don't really care too much if they are wrong.
Correct your review and give it 4 or 5 stars then make sure of your facts before casting aspersions.
