Hello,

I've got problem with running one game. After reporting to Microsoft (my system runs on Win Vista Home Basic SP1) using auto-reporting tool, Microsoft says: "This problem was caused by Win32/PSW.Lineage.DN/ PWS-Lineage, a known computer virus".

Checking Internet, I stumbled upon advice to use Hijackthis. I downloaded the version 2.0.2 and here below is the scan result. Looking at it – I am not very technical, yet understand some level of computing terms – I didn't see clear problem.

Note: I inserted some extra CR in the report for better readability.

So, is that a false warning or what? Should I just restart the computer? Thanks in advance!

Best regards,

erik 2009
