I recently installed 1st page 2000 from one of the download sites here in the forum, and my McAfee is going beserk, says I have a trojan. Anyone having this problem?
I Would Be Interested To Know Where You Downloaded 1st.Page From??
Here's where I got mine.....

Thanks so much for the download site lonewolf!
Yes indeed, there is a known Virus JavaScript executable file, "6 Buttons from Hell".
If your AV misses it, It be located in the IScripts Folder. Symantec names it 'Js.Trojan.WindowBomb'. If you have Norton AV 2003 on your computer, it pops-up a message saying that it has automatically deleted the file.
It only works if you open it, so DON'T OPEN IT. Instead, right-click on the IScript Folder & have your AV program do a Virus Scan of the Folder. Or manual delete it without opening it.
Other than this incredible gaff on the part of Evrsoft, the program seems to work just fine. Under Windows XP, it does load a tad too slow.
All references to this Virus refer to it being it the '1st Page 2000 V 2.0' program.

I found that if you install 1st page 2000 using custom, and select Instantz Scripts, it sets off McAfee.....
Tried A Download .....No Virus Found
I have Norton 2003, and it found a trojan when I downloaded from the PC World site as well. Beware!
I also had unwanted items (links to evrsoft, etc) placed on my IE browser favorites list... makes you go hmmm....
