  • THREATrating from user geonexus for file %TEMP%\\FlashUtil.exe (Variant: 8193238)

    I have connected this file with the fbi money pak virus. If it is safe, then still be weary that certain online videos, especially in streaming movies, will put this file on your computer. The virus is disguised as this and will not be detected by the virus software. Email me for screen shots if you like, but if the file is located in users/computer name/AppData/local/temp/ and then a wierd file name .exe....... it is a virus. Any counter opinions on this is appreciated.
