Thanks for your reply.

I download extra.zip and installed. it works.

but I think it's a new false positive because I have McAfee updated (last succesfull update 2008/04/11 17:15)
last month I had same problem and I solved with manual update of McAfee and reinstall ScreenCaptor.

Thanks fro all

It is a confirmed new false positive.  McAfee has examined the file and replied (see post on other thread) that they know they messed up and expect to release an official fix in a day or so.
