I scanned my harddrive today with ClamWin AV and it found only two complaints:

JabRef.exe: Trojan.FakeAlert-566 FOUND

CDM_2.04.06.exe: Adware.Borlander FOUND

JabRef was installed with LyX <http://www.lyx.org/ http://www.lyx.org/>.

CDM_... is used to install a driver for a USB to serialconverter and was downloaded from the manufacturers web site <http://www.titanelectronics.com/dris.html http://www.titanelectronics.com/dris.html>.

I think these are false positives but I'm not sure. Spybot couldn't find anything. Does anyone here know how to determine if these files are infected.
