Hello everyone,as every week, i scan my system with ad-aware and anti-virus program. This time, my Anti-virus program found 3 trojans or so within the Loadmanager of the PMDG-MD11 and 747.when it asked me, if i would like to repair it, i confirmed and, well, it "repaired" it, what ever that means. however, now my shortcuts on my desktop, linkin to the loadmanagers, are gone and i can't find them anymore. they are not inside the pmdg folder within the fsx folder.what can i do? do i have have to reinstall both planes again?p.s.: my anti-virus program is called "Avira Anti-Vir Personal" and i also use "Ad-Aware" both updated nearly every day.help would be appreciated very much.thanks in advanceDominik Tedja

Run the installers and select repair. You might consider excluding the MSFS folders from the scans.

Just in this minutes I've got 9 reports from AVIRA Antivirus about the Load_Manager.It isn't unusual that AVIRA shows false positives... I think that will happen with many virus scanners..I have sent the loadmanager to AVIRA with a hint for the false positive that they can check what happend.Are there any ideas from PMDG whats happen?guenter steiner

i'm glad that i am not the only one who received this messages. Maybe it has something to do with their latest update...just very strange, i also received numerous other messages concerning the same trojan on another hard disc....first time after about 1 year that i receiv virus alarms..however, i will try the repair thing, hopefully with success :(Dominik Tedjaedit: ok, just did a repair and after the installer added the missing loadmanager.exe, my virus software again alarmed me, that loadmanager would be a trojan called "XGen" something...is it possible that this trojan somehow merges with the loadmanger, or inject itself into the manager??? i'm not a professional but as long as i don't know what's going on, i will not reinstall the loadmanager again.

I think it is more a problem with a false postitive alert than the loadmanager. NAV 2009 is quite happy with the files.

I've got Feedback from AVIRA thats a false positive.Will be solved with the next update.Till then you can choose "ignore" when the alert comes up...

thank you very much! great support here!edit: sry to bother you again guys but unfortunately, the installer for the 744 does not include a way to repair the files. everytime use the setup.exe it just says that the version i use is the newest and the one to be installed is older and that i have to deinstall my current version in order to install the other :S is there a seperate repair-tool or do i have to reinstall the 744?

I guess you are looking at a reinstall then. Tip: Uninstall the liveries before the plane. Install plane, make sure it is okay, then install liveries.

To do the repair you have to go to add/remove programs (or it's equivalent in Vista) and choose change/remove for the appropriate PMDG aircraft. You will then get an option to repair. I had do this after running the 737 removal tool; it wiped out the load managers for both the 747 and MD-11.

Hey All,Glad I'm not the only one who has this problem and that I found this post. Sounds like it might have to do with the last update. I'm going to try to repair and shut down Avira. Oh by the way, I'm using Avira Anti virus too.;-)
