I upgraded my Divx player on recommendation from Secunia. It still tells me there is a problem with Divx 1.x (when moused over I see npdivx32.dll as the problem file) Warning is here: http://secunia.com/advisories/33196/ But I've upgraded the program (Divx 7) and the Divx site tells me I have the newest version, yet the warning will not go away. Is this a false positive or is there something I need to do other than the standard upgrade? |

There must be remnants of the old product on your PC. FINDING A VULNERABILITY FILE PATH ================================= To locate the exact file that the Secunia PSI has detected, use or switch to the ADVANCED interface, then : 1 Click on the + sign of the programme to "expand' it. 2 Click on Technical Details in the Toolbox to see the installation path of the detected file. (Copy (CTRL+C) & paste (CTRL+V) the Installation Path of the file back to the Forum if U are unsure what to do next)). 19:42 28/12/2009 -- Maurice Windows 7 SP1 64 Bit OS HP Intel Pentium i7 IE 10 for Windows 7 SP1 16GB RAM |

Thank you. That thread solved my problem. I renamed the dll to .dll_old and that eliminated the threat, and the updated program still works. | ||||||||

Renaming the dll file worked for me, too. Thanks. |
