"I think this program came with a Trojan"
Version: WinMD5Sum 1.0
Pros
If the cons are true than the pros are nothing.
Cons
I think this program came with a Trojan
Win32.Backdoor.Hupigon.bmj
scanned it with Zone Alarm
ZoneAlarm Security Suite version:8.0.059.000Summary
I disliked it because I think it gave me a trojan.
My evidence is that this torjan >>> Win32.Backdoor.Hupigon.bmj was in the places below
File: C:\Documents and Settings\All\Start Menu\Programs\winMd5Sum\winMd5Sum.lnk
