Sunday, June 28th, 2009

I scan my comp. and get this
PuA.HackTool.PotentialBotComponent
c:\windows\system32\whoiscl.exe

But on the internet I find this:
Description
WhoisCL is a simple command-line utility that allows you to easily get information about a registered domain. It automatically connect to the right WHOIS server, according to the top-level domain name, and retrieve the WHOIS record of the domain.
It supports both generic domains and country code domains.

System Requirements
Windows operating system: Windows 98/ME/2000/XP/2003.
Internet connection.
On a firewall, you should allow outgoing connections to port 43

I am a little confused
thank you in advance
