Avast doesn't pick up anything here. Perhaps you have another peice of spyware on your system that is infecting other files?
Do an adaware/ spybot S&D scan and see if that picks anything up, along with a full system scan using Avast!

It's most likely a problem with the latest VPS. There was a similar problem with one of Shareaza's DLL's. They fixed it the next day.

Avast is the bad Antivirus program.
Use DrWeb or Kaspersky AntiVirus

Hi,
The VPS update for today dectects qmp101.exe the Quintessential Media Player Beta101 from www.quinnware.com <http://www.quinnware.com> as a "Win32:Spyware-gen. [Trj]". The file can be found at http://www.quinnware.com/downloader.php?qcd=dev&intl= <http://www.quinnware.com/downloader.php?qcd=dev&intl> . I can assure you this is definatly a false positive.
Thanks.

Should be sorted by today by the looks of things. Also theres a thread in the community section for discussing which AV is best, no need to bring it here.

Wow, That is so much easier than Microsoft. Did you read what happened to a Spybot user that tried Microsoft antispyware? MSAS detected spybot as spyware and when he emailed MS about it they recomended he removed spybot.

I use them all without conflict Myself... I was merely compareing the quickness of the avast team to something complained about in spybot's Forum... which was found to be truthful...
