Troj/JSRedir

mfaccone

On a new IMac.. and timeMachine backing up to an external drive...

I keep getting a trojan alert for ftscft.html. as a Troj/JSredir

It calls for manual deletion...

If I exit out of Sophos and wait a few min.  It mysteriously disappears from the quarentine manager.

Im thinking this is a false positive.. and should just ignore it..  or is something else going on here?

    Ok.. but why does it only show up on a time machine backup?  Shouldn't it also be on my hard drive?  

    And it shows up in different directories on the backup... never same place.... and never more than once.  I would figure that it would also show up in several time machine backup times as well.

    I am assuming its harmless and should be ignored..   I have run a test... taking the time machine backup that found it and restoring that backup on my machine.. ran the scanner... and it didnt show up except on the time machine backup.
