| [SOLVED] I have a program named Python 2.2.1 and also combined with Win32 extensions. What is this and do I need it? I came accross a program in my Add or Remove Programs menu named Python 2.2.1 and Python 2.2 combined Win32 extensions. Can anybody tell what this program is used for and if i need it? __________________          |

 Hi, I found this thread through Google. AVG has found a Trojan Horse on my archived Python 2.2.1 PHP/MPack.B (I cannot find any info. about this Trojan) It cannot heal it. So I was trying to find out if it's OK to delete Python 2.2.1 without harming the computer. The above would seem to say 'yes,' but I'm just not sure. I'm wondering if the problem came when I had to do a system recovery recently and then had to change the language on the keyboard, from American English to English English  Would be glad of advice. Thanks. __________________ |

| If you have just "Found" it on your computer - then it was probably put there and installed from another application... and needs Python to run properly. It's not hurting anything by being there, I would just leave it  __________________ Day Cares | Golf Courses | Disc Golf Courses | Campgrounds | Ice Rinks | Paintball Fields | Dentists | Plastic Surgeons | Aging Jokes Catholic Churches | Lutheran Churches | Methodist Churches | Episcopal Churches | Clean Jokes |

| as I said, there is a Trojan attached to it...embedded. It cannot be healed, i.e. removed from the file. That is why I am asking if it's ok to delete the file itself. When I say 'harming' - mean I am trying to find out if it's essential as it seems to be about the language itself.

| More likely it's a false positive from AVG __________________ Chris Indifference will be the downfall of mankind, but who cares? Code Samples | People Counting System |
