i keep getting a pop up from my anti virus about some threat : win32/DH{OTY}. not sure what i should do. i looked it up but not really sure if it's a virus or what. has anyone else seen this or know what it is? any help would be great.
I assume you are using AVG?
Check out this post - https://support.avg.com/answers?id=906b0000000D3vGAAS
Looks like posting on the AVG support forums is the best way to get an answer. win32/DH is a trojan, usually, but can also be a false positive it seems. Especially with AVG.
If you are not using AVG, post which one you are using.
yeah i have AVG. i'm starting to wonder if it's good or not though.
I don't use AVG, but I'm pretty sure Crazy Man and a few others here do. Hopefully they will chime in with some help, since they are familiar.
I use AVG but am not familiar with this problem.

Nope, never touched it or any free antivirus. I have always had Norton 360

AVG Free = Free warning threats. Which are real and which are not? fart.gif

Thanks CM. I was mistaken. Sorry about that.

Had nothing but false positives with AVG, darn near drove us bananas here. They want you to BUY the full version and I didn't find it much better!
At least with Norton 360, if it grabs something it doesn't understand you can go get it back if you really trust it.
But I find for the most part, Norton 360 doesn't give you constant unnecessary false positives like AVG.
