    Exclamation Thunderbird Portable + NSIS media extension (FP - i think)

    Hi,

    i use SpyBot 1.5.1.15 with Update rules from 1st november '07.
    System is "XP Home" / SP2 german, IE 7, all fixes installed via Windows Update.

    * SYMPTOM:
    Thunderbird Portable 2.0.0.6 (running from USB stick) and getting false positives (think so) about an "NSIS media extension" - after full SD scan.
    Note: Thunderbird crashed once yesterday, probably leaving these files on disc, without a chance to delete.

    * FILES / FOLDERS INVOLVED:
    It looks as if a folder is created temporarily in my user's TEMP location, with the following files:

    FindProcDLL.dll
    newadvsplash.dll
    registry.dll
    System.dll
    UserInfo.dll
    splash.jpg (the Thunderbird portable logo!) <=

    The name of the folder changes (with each startup?).

    * EXCERPT FROM LOG:
    Here an excerpt from my SpyBot Log:
    --- Search result list ---
    NSIS Media Extension: [SBI $1ADFC7D9] Programm-Verzeichnis (Verzeichnis, nothing done)
    C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\Yo\Lokale Einstellungen\Temp\nse2.tmp\

    (Yo is my username. I cut the above log file, because i found no other reference to NSIS...)

    I googled and found that other scanners also had problems with the remains of the installer:

    This is a false positive, right?
    Thank you very much.

    hello,

    thank you for reporting this, it looks like a false positive and will be fixed with the upcoming update.
