Titanium skin

watch out

I downloaded the WB "Titanium" skin today and my security suite immediately informed me that I had installed a PUP onto the system. Running a complete security scan I discovered that the PUP was "Reboot-E" and that it was indeed contained within the WB Titanium folder. Secure deletion and a rescan appear to have removed all evidence.
Has anyone else come across this?
If not then beware!!!

File looks clean to me. Did you download it from Wincustomize?

Ok,firstI must appologise for not being specific as to which titanium skin I had downloaded (I did not realise that there were four available)
The one in question is titanium (author arnold)370KB
Yes I did download it from Wincustomize although not through the SD Central browser.
I have tried re-downloading it again and it is still including the same PUP which I have,of course safely deleted.
I have not checked the other "titanium4" skin by arnold to see if that is the same.
Comments would be most welcome.

The skin is safe. There's a setup program in there to alter various aspects of the look of Windows98. That may trigger your AV proggie (McAfee?).

Teh skin is 7 years old... try something newer
