Thanks Les, I did do a full two hour scan with Microsoft Essentials my antivirus program and nothing showed up at all. My understanding is that Essentials is a good virus program as well. FamilySearch Indexing is an LDS program where you index marriage records and I know them to be a good site. I have indexed records for years with FamilySearch and no problems at all. Would you suggest that I delete the file in the Quarantine? Appreciate your help.

Yvonne, The file is safe in quarantine, and can do no harm. Don't delete it yet. If it is part of the familySearch application, it is probably needed. If the filesize is correct it is not a trojan. Can you look in quarantine and get the filename and filesize? We can then check to see if the file should be there and its correct size. Or you could just replace it with the correct one.

Well Les, I am one happy person that you are helping me out here!. I just received another warning this time "C:\Program Files\Java\jreg\Bin\JavaCPL.Exe". Neither file states the file size. The first file was "C:/program files\familysearch indexing\indexing." As I have never experienced this before I don't know what to do. I will keep the warnings in quarantine. Hope you can help know what to do. Thanks, Yvonne On 12/1/2011 11:26 AM, Les Hardy wrote: > Yvonne, > The file is safe in quarantine, and can do no harm.
