Wait no longer ;-)

----------------------------------------------------

My temporair (don't remember the right word in English) conclusion
could be: no serious threat, as only a few scanners have any comment
on this file. Now, when I asked in the Avira forum to comment on this,
I received a vague reply. The only concrete part of their answer was
that only part of their names of threats figure in their virus
database.

I will take a look at the virusdatabases of the few other scanners
that have a comment on this file in order to elucidate what it does.

Any thoughts about it?

Regards,
Massimo

I would tend to agree with the non serious threat it may pose.
If you'd like to send a sample along tho, I'll be happy to add it to
BugHunter and pass it along to other developers.
