Thanks Armando and Nod,

I've just now sent filenoter.exe to Avast and hopefully they can shed some light on the problem.
I'm getting more confused by the minute. I burned a copy of filenoter.zip to CD shortly after I downloaded it from DC. If I'm using the right tool and doing it correctly the hash supplied in the zip and the one generated here don't match? I don't understand that?

Other AV scanners blow right by filenoter.exe without issue.

During the course of this little escapade filenoter, filenotes by GiorgosK , Universal Viewer and maybe other items have been removed from my context menu. They all show in the registry but won't display in the context menu. The AV scan in the context menu stopped working. I just installed Clam AV which installed a context menu entry. That won't work either?

I've obviously got some corruption that has screwed up my context menu. Removing and reinstalling these items hasn't made any difference. I'm facing a Repair install of XPPro64.......... ARRGGGGGGGGG!!!

 :(

Folks,

I'm having a bad time here!
Avast insists that filenoter.exe and filenote.exe, two different apps, two different authors, on two different machines, are carrying a trojan. I have redownloaded, extracted to new folder and the siren still wails.
Is anyone else having a problem? I wondering if a recent update for Avast may have something to do with it?
Seems weird......... both of these little context menu apps were working fine since back in December but a couple of days ago started throwing fits!

I've been playing with this for the last couple of days. Once the indexes are complete it's faster than a speeding bullet. Very impressive and freeware from Portable apps!
