Adobe virus?

How come every time I scan a key for viruses, when such key includes adobe.exe, avast and panda titanium detect that adobe.exe is a virus ? And avast and panda titanium don't do so for other %26lt;.exe%26gt;'s.



Adobe virus?vincent



It likely is a virus.



Adobe is a software company, not a specific program. Viruses tend to stick themselves in the System directory or Program Files and use any names that would confuse the user, like something that sounds like a real program.



Also, it is possible for windows programs you already have to be "injected" with virus code or references to code libraries.
