"Have a Great DesignTime Experience with a Powerful DesignSurface (Extended) Class" [^]: if you download the "Download demo project and library source code - 107.63 KB," EmsiSoft AV v. 8.1.0.19 reports the file at:

\designsurfaceext_tinyformdesigner_sourcecode\DesignSurfaceExt\DemoConsole\bin\Release\TestConsole.exe

is infected with: Gen:Variant.Strictor.20077 (B).

It's quite uncommon, these days, to see a false positive from EmsiSoft.

Hi Brisingr,

That's a very interesting site, thanks. I note they run Linux versions of the various companies scanning software, and also, that any file you upload will be shared with AV companies, if they wish.

I admit to being a zealot of EmsiSoft; I have exorcised friends' computers infected with really nasty root-kits and such that could not be handled by such stalwarts as Kaspersky.

A 20% possibility of doom is enough to scare off an old buzzard like me Smile | :)

F-Secure, Emsisoft, BitDefender, GData etc. are using the same scan engine. Thus it is no wonder that all of them have come to the same result.

Neither for me. Because any download other than allowed ones are halted by a BlueCoat filter for me.

It seems to be an false positive! I've looked at the .exe file (using IDA) and could not find any malicious behavior. From my point of view it is a normal/innocuous .NET executable. The type of "malware" (e.g., Gen:xxx / Gen:Variant.Strictor.20077) shows that an heuristic is used. However, these techniques are prone to misreporting.

When viewing these revisions http://www.codeproject.com/script/Articles/ListVersions.aspx?aid=667609[^] I see a button to rollback to the previous revision. I did not try it to see what happens.

Based on my privileges I should not be seeing this button.

You should see this button, because the articles of the "ASP.NET Community Wiki" can be edited by Bronze Members (and above), and your Author Status is "Bronze".

Problem with syntax coloriser.

I was trying to answer a question: error in javascript, when trying to block the page[^]

And looking at the OP's post, it looked fairly obvious:

Response.Write(@"<script language='javascript'>document.getElementById('drop1')style.display = 'block';</script>");

The double quotes around the single quotes around javascript will cause problems with the C# syntax.

So I tried to post an answer - only to find the same double quotes where I didn't have them...
If I paste this

Response.Write(@"<script language='javascript'>document.getElementById('drop1')style.display = 'block';</script>");

And then surround it with pre tags:

Response.Write(@"<script language='javascript'>document.getElementById('drop1')style.display = 'block';</script>");

The syntax coloriser adds double quotes where they shouldn't be!

The only instant messaging I do involves my middle finger.

English follows other languages down dark alleys, knocks them over and goes through their pockets for loose grammar.

I deleted a solution that I intended to improve. After this I found there was no way to reinstate my answer. I thought that by improving the deleted solution and then posting it I may be able to reinstate but not so. Should we not be able to repost a deleted answer.
