My anti virus picks up a trojan on VMAX SCART's website.

PSW.Sinowal.A

So avoid at the moment

Can't find too much info on this particular one.

In general though they can be quite nasty, password stealers.

If anyone knows how to contact VMAX SCART without going on their website please do!

Me too, "AVG" update on Friday picked it up - didn't earlier in the week!

None of my 3 Spywares has picked it.

I don't think it's a false find either - when AVG picked it up my Firefox process had gone up to over 400mb !

Anyone who has been on the site make sure you delete all temproary internet files (CCleaner is very good for this) - Also try Bitdefender or kapersky on line scanner.

I get the impression that it'll nick all your passwords otherwise.
