Hi everyone,
Firt time poster here, and quite unfamiliar with malware, etc.
I hope I posted in the correct section, if not I apologize!
I have a dvd-r that has some information on it that I need to add onto my hard drive on my laptop. I need this for work.
I opened up Spybot S&D as an administrator and highlighted my dvd drive where the disk was inserted and scanned using Spybot and Ad-Aware. Ad-Aware came up clean, but Spybot came up mostly clean on both the Malware & Heuristic scans, however there were 3 or 4 instances in each scan (M & H - same files for each) that came up with "MyPoints" as opposed to "Nothing Found". I took a screen shot of the Spybot window which I have attached.
Does anyone know anything about this? I have googled it but couldn't find a whole lot of what I thought was useful information.
If anyone could help, I would really appreciate it! I am scared to put the info on my work computer (Windows XP Pro) and screw it up or am I being uneccessarily cautious?
The laptop that I scanned the disk from is Windows Vista. If you need more info that I didn't post, I'm sorry and tell me what you need and I will post it...
Thanks for your time everyone and hope the weather is great wherever you are!
Jeff
