Kaspersky internet security dedected a worm, when i updated the SIMBA !
WTF ????

Has some1 the same problem ?

Only download Simba from
http://wizzup.org/simba/
As long as you do that, you are fine, and any detections are false positives.
I suggest using MalwareBytes and/or Microsoft Security Essentials

I downloaded the simba @ the Official webpage ! but i updated the simba client ! and then my kaspersky virus protection sayd so, ! :S

yeah.. that's what im leaning towards :(

Its probobly detecting it as a virus because ur viris sofwear is Bogey

BOGEY ?= what mean that ?

Kaspersky Antivirus is the best virus protection ;) its not a free software !

I want to say when i updated on the SIMBA client—–Tools—Update ! When i done it then my virus protection sayd that the file is a WORM! :S

I use AVG its great;D Well it cant possibly be a virus if u got it off here,unless u downloaded it from somewhere else, O and BOGEY means Dodgy,unstable,Wonkey.

Along those lines yes

GUYS STOP.
I know exactly what he did.
He got a message the other day saying Simba update
It said, "Simba has been updated/"
It gave him a fake link and he downloaded a worm.
Its not actually wizzup

Except he explicitly stated he downloaded it from the main page, then used the in program update.

If that's the case, it's just a false positive.

He said he downloaded from wizzup.org and updated normally.

OP a few programs detect simba as a virus, due to the way it uses sockets. You didn't get a virus detection when you originally installed simba?
If Kaspersky didn't delete the file, try scanning it with malwarebytes. Just because you pay for Kaspersky doesn't make it better than free antivirus.

There was a PM that went around a little while ago from a user who made himself look official, and it contained a download link which looked like it linked to Wizzup?'s site, but it was actual an infected version of Simba.
