VirtuaWinPortable

Submitted by charlie_24 on July 12, 2011 - 9:54am

I have been running this application for many months now without issue. However, yesterday my company's anti-virus software would not let the program run and reported that the program VirtuaWinPortable was actually a virus: Mal/EncPk-OJ.

The antivirus software is Sophos Endpoint Security.

Any ideas?

Keep in mind I am not the administrator and cannot authorize the program, which would eliminate it as a threat.

A few days ?

John said on the 20th of June that he would post an update in a few days.

He repeated this statement on the 24th of June after locking the update thread dated 21-5-2011.

Seeing as it is now July 3rd I was wondering how long is a few days.

Over here in England it is usually 2-3 days.

Completely turn off Autorun on Windows XP

Hello everyone. I have a question that is only partly off-topic: Is it possible to turn off Autorun on Windows XP?

I am deeply disappointed with the recent MS "Security" update: while it prevents the system from starting PortableApps.com automatically, it still takes ages to process the key or hard disk to tell me that "there are different media on it; what application do I want to use?"

Duke Nukem Forever came out before folders came to the PortableApps.com Platform

Wow. Really? Think about that statement for a second. While the folders code has been around a few years now, DNF has been in limbo for over 10 years.

I was going to say, a little birdie told me that Duke Nukem Forever leaked on torrent sites last night (okay, I saw it firstahand, but I did not download it), but I checked Wikipedia, and apparently the game came out today. The biggest vaporware joke in the history of the Internet... is no longer funny.
