I just encountered the same trojan and i use ZoneAlarm Internet Security Suite- most updated recent version. Right now I think I will use version 2.04.543 until further notice. So it looks like the latest version has this problem and it has to be taken care of. then I uninstalled version 2.04.543 and installed the latest version again 2.05.555 and ran a scan. I uninstalled the 2.04.543 version and installed it again and then did another scan and it came up with a clean report. Then I installed the previous version of CCleaner which is version 2.04.543 and then did another scan with zone alarm and surprisingly it did not report any trojan and came out clean. I uninstalled and installed it several times but it reported the same trojan. I uninstalled the latest version of CCleaner and a few days later during a zonealarm scan it reported the backdoor trojan that you have mentioned. Mark the CCleaner files that have been found by ZoneAlarm as safe, or ignore, whatever is needed and be done with it. You're concluding that every other antivirus vender in the world is missing that CCleaner is infected. However in this case the best bet after seeing it come up on several systems with ZoneAlarm, when we know CCleaner isn't being reported as infected by any other antivirus, then the conclusion is simple, your software is the one that's on the wrong side in this case. THEY ALL DO! It may not happen often, and some are better than others, but there just isn't any perfect software, even CCleaner. All that being said, trusting ANY program to never have false positives, is just silly. I've worked with a lot of antivirus programs and security software in general. I work on a lot of different computers with different setups all the time. I don't normally respond to posts like this very much once I've had my say, but in this case I have to. I might stick with th previous version instead of this one MY report found two files:įile: C:\Documents and Settings\Desktop\CCleaner.lnkįile: C:\Program Files\CCleaner\CCleaner.exeįile: C:\Documents and Settings\Markon Malaj\Desktop\CCleaner.lnk I like this programe very much but I also trust the zonealarm which have never reported a false positive until now. I have uninstalled and reinstalled it several times from various websites and it reports the same problem. Surprisingly, it did not report this trojan when I had the previous version. I just installed the last version of CCleaner and it reported this trojan. I have experienced the same problem as you have. Has anyone else had a problem? I haven't looked at the Zone Alarm forums to see if there's information about it there. I quarantines it, which removed CCleaner.exe and my desktop icon for CCleaner. The name listed in my ZoneAlarmPro associated with the trojan is "". Help! My ZoneAlarm Pro just completed a scan and reported a trojan in CCleaner.exe.
