And you know what I do with my computer? I run without any form of anti-virus. I have done so for the better part of the past decade. I have never been infected.
All of the anti-virus software in the world is no substitute for a little common sense. Before you click on something, download something, whatever just take a look at it and think of the possibilities. Ask yourself why Joymax would have a reason to distribute a game with a trojan along with it. Besides Sony BMG's copy prevention bullshit, established companies tend to avoid this kind of thing.
You can do whatever you want with your computer, but don't go raising paranoia on internet message boards just because your anti-virus started bleeping.
thats ballsey of you, running without anti-virus software. Kasperskys caught alot of websites doing things they shouldn't and warned me about hidden files in downloads. Im not stupid but i don't have the patience to consider every move i make on the interweb and decide whether it may or may not contain something harmful and then decide where to go from their. Hats off to you cruor you never cease to amaze but i'd at least have a firewall up....
I have never had a virus nor seen a use for an anti-virus..to me they only waste space on my hard drive.... and i have been building computers for about 13 years.

Since it was detected as trojan-generic, it seems to have been detected using heuristics, not exact definition files, so it's most likely a false positive. Send avira a bug report and they might correct it by the time the next signature update comes out.
