Virus Infected Installer
Hey i got a Counter strike 1.6 installer by digitalzone but it has some trojan in the installer, I installed n got my PC screwed..
Avira got hold of it but effects were not supressed...
Now if I start the installer Sanboxed does it gets installed in its virtual space or the original path...
N will the threat spread out of it....

Weird, I am playing DigitalZone's version of Counter Strike and no problems? Avira is pretty well known for false detection.

Maybe ur Avira was configured to -> Highest Heuristic Setting *
Installers = Compressed Pack/Exe are sometimes tag as trojan.win32 heur due to its behavior
Try alternative AV Scanner - Portable -> KAV AVP Tool / Dr.WebCureIt

I accidently cleared my Avira History... 
I ran the Installer SandBoxed n Vollah virus got activated but SandBoxed so PC was saved...
The Installer ran a Toolbar.exe file this file i guess screwed my PC last time Avira detected but couldnot stop it....
Sandbox didnt have a file in C: so registry modification is what it does..
All other files were virus free i scanned using Avira n A-squared n also Spybot S&D [too a hell lot of time Spybot]
Found something on the net abt it still unknown n registry modification no file as such...
CS1.6 v35 directlink from Digitalzone....
One more person had complained but i ignored as it was around 2 months ago thought they must have changed....
Alright its done thx everyone
