Can someone please scan a file for me - it may be a virus.

I recently found a file, humor.scr, on my web space - it appears to have been put there following a php exploit hack, and has been accessed a few thousand times.

As I have no AV proggies, I have not run it, but would be interested to see what it is.

so long as the file is less than 1mb, you can upload it for scanning here....

E-mail it to me and it should get caught

Hmm - blocked by hotmail, gmail, work and 1and1.

None will tell me what it is, just that it is "potentially" unsafe.

Ah well . . .

Wouldn't suprise me if some filters brand *.scr as "potentially unsafe"

Personally I'd just delete any file appearing on my webspace which I didn't put there myself.

If you e-mail me ( NOT THE FILE! :eek:

) I can supply you with an FTP account to upload to a secure area from which I will scan it with ClamAV

rename it to .txt and email it to my email in my trust.
