I read around and apparently this is a video player plug-in, etc. But what worries me is that Norton treated the exact name and extension as a download to scan. No developer name in the description. I went to TastefullyOffensive.com when the Norton notification popped up and displayed the file.

The file itself is listed as modified 1/15/2015 and hasn't updated the date. Checking the properties lists the recent date on the created attribute, but not on the accessed or modified attributes.

Separate Issue; Your System Details shows;

Installed Plug-ins

Adobe Shockwave for Director Netscape plug-in, version 12.0.4.144 Adobe Shockwave for Director Netscape plug-in, version 12.1.3.153

Having more than one version of a program may cause issues.

Grab the uninstaller from here: Uninstall Flash Player | Windows

Flash Player v16.0.0.305
https://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html Shockwave Director v12.1.6.156 http://get.adobe.com/shockwave/

What did Norton do with the file?

Quarantined? Restore it. Blocked? Unblock it. Wants permission? Give it.


Fixed Flash version as there was a update to 16.0.0.305. Take a moment to check each time and not rely on clipboard.
