does this have a virus

[neto1]

i scanned the .exe and it came up infected with this Adware.AdRotator , so i deleted it

what is it ?
DID ANYBODY ELSE GET THIS???

What antivirus are you using? Are you sure it's not a false positive?
I have Symantec, as well as Sypbot S&D and Ad-Aware, all showing PMS as just fine.
In addition, it's open source, so you can check all the code and compile it yourself if you really want to double check.

I have the same problem still today with the latest version of PS3 Media Server. See file attach!

Why is this still there?
And when will it be changed?!

I just ran a scan using Spyboy 1.6.2 and it didn't detect anything. Are you using the 2.0 beta?

[pieterl]

No I have Spybot 1.6.2.
Maybe it is the Tea timer who detects it, that could be the case. Do you have that active?

I installed that just now and restarted PMS and went into the folder, I did everything to make it detected but it wouldn't see it.
How strange!

Maybe to explain it. This warning comes from the TeaTimer which checks active processes.
I got the warning +/- 3 times, pressed OK every time, but somehow I don't get this warning anymore.
If I do a scan with Spybot, then this problem is NOT detected. So it is really the active PS3 media server process causing the problem.
I have asked the Spybot people why I only get it +/- 3 times and whether this was AdRotator was detected falsely, while it actually is not there..

Well there is no question that it is a false-positive, which means it isn't actually a virus or spyware. It's possible it was detected before but they fixed their detections.
