Hi,

Thought it might be useful to report what appears to be a false positive from my virus scanner. I've got Symantec AntiVirus 10.1 (corporate license). After receiving the July 15 virus signature update, the following files were listed as infected by the Adware.CPush virus, and quarantined.

C:\Program Files\Fund Manager\modsetup.exe
C:\Program Files\Fund Manager\uninstall.exe
C:\zipped programs\fundmn84.exe
C:\zipped programs\fundmn85.exe

When I dug into the details on Symantec's website, none of the expected CPush registry keys existed. No symptoms of infection other than the fact that they got picked up by the virus scanner.
