A generic detection has identified a script file that has features or behaviors similar to a trojan.
Security programs use generic detections that look for broad patterns of code or behavior to identify similar programs or files. If you suspect the file was incorrectly detected, go to: Removal: Suspect a file is incorrectly detected (a False Positive)?.
Based on the settings of your F-Secure security product, it will either move the file to the quarantine where it cannot spread or cause harm, or remove it.
A False Positive is when a file is incorrectly detected as harmful, usually because its code or behavior resembles known harmful programs. A False Positive will usually be fixed in a subsequent database update without any action needed on your part. If you wish, you may also:
Check for the latest database updates
First check if your F-Secure security program is using the latest updates, then try scanning the file again.
Submit a sample
After checking, if you still believe the file is incorrectly detected, you can submit a sample of it for re-analysis.
Note: If the file was moved to quarantine, you need to collect the file from quarantine before you can submit it.
Exclude a file from further scanning
If you are certain that the file is safe and want to continue using it, you can exclude it from further scanning by the F-Secure security product.
Note: You need administrative rights to change the settings.
In computing, a script is a small program or section of code which is 'read' and executed by another, primary application.
Scripts can be written in one of a large number of programming languages (e.g., Bash, Delphi, JavaScript, etc), and may be used to perform a wide variety of actions, making them versatile tools in legitimate circumstances. Unfortunately, this versatility may also be put to use with malicious intent.
Script files that include harmful code are usually (but not always) detected as trojans. Examples of malicious scripts include:
