PECompact - Friend or a foe?
#1
My anti-virus has been detecting a virus on my computer ever since I downloaded update for shockwave player. It's called PECompact and when I googled it, it says that sometimes it's completely harmless "executable compression" used by softwares (in this case: shockwave player?).

My anti-virus is quite old, so according to wikipedia it would be normal for old versions to categorize every PECompact file as a virus...

So what do you think? Is it part of Shockwave player or actually virus?
