Virus ?
« on: January 23, 2008, 11:14:00 AM »
Hi!

I just downloaded pdf explorer 1.5 english trial version and during the first start my sophos antivirus stated that the file KeyHook.dll contains dangerous spyware - namely Mal/LineDLL-B:

h t t p : / / w w w.sophos.com/virusinfo/analyses/mallinedllb.html

The description is not very comprehensive. Also i could not find any matching classifications from other anti-virus software vendors or virus databases about KeyHook.dll or Mal/LineDLL-B.

Is this really a virus in the download ?

RTT

KeyHook.dll is just a simple keyboard hook dll, coded by me, used to keep keyboard connectivity to PDFE even when PDF reader ActiveX plugins are focused, not a virus for sure.
