Hab das Tool "Folder Access" installiert , aber seit heute sagt mir mein "avast" , ein Antiviren Programm das es ein Troj ist mit folgender bezeichnung aus der LOG datei meines Viren Scanners Zitat aus LOG: 05.12.2007 11:32:31 SYSTEM 1280 Sign of "Win32:Spyware-gen [Trj]" has been found in "C:\WINDOWS\system32\LckFldService.exe" file.

This service, part of the "Folder Access" app, logs its activity in "lckfldservicelog.txt" found in the same directory. "Lckfldservicelog.txt" can be manually edited to remove entries. "Lckfldservice.exe" is usually started by the Startup config, but can consume 100% of the CPU if it is started manually (from a file list, etc.).

Diese Datei gehört zu dem Programm Folder Access, mit welchem man ordner mit passwörtern schützen kann
