Trojan Horse in Foxit Reader?

Hi,

I was just zipping the content of my USB stick when AVG 8.5 Virus scanner detected a virus in the file "Foxit Reader.exe":

...\PortableApps\FoxitReaderPortable\App\Foxit Reader\Foxit Reader.exe

Trojan Horse IRC/BackDoor.SdBot4.PBX

Does anyone know if this is correct or if it is a false positive?

TIA

Problem should be solved after today's virus definition update.

Thanks

Yeah, I got it too and was typing out a forum report when I saw how to do a better search. It would be good if Foxit Reader had its own support forum.

Thanks for reporting it.
