All this is very strange. From observations figured out if scan files without unpacking them, no viruses. If you unzip the files to scan and finds the two viruses.

isn't that what a lot of ppl here been saying? i mean many had their wallets stolen and now suddenly there is like 400BTC worth of sells, sounds fishy don't you think.

Pretty standard, people start panicking there's a virus and start selling. Kind of self explanatory. There have been these similar false positive scares with many other coins too only for it to be fine after people look into it more. Would be nice to get more feedback from the main dev at this point.

I've worked with many viruses in the past, and on my system I see no evidence of a botnet neither in my resource usage, nor in my raw packet data that is going across the wire.  If it had infected me I would have seen packets destined to some irc server more than likely among other things.  I have no strange cpu usage, or wierd packets. I also did a registry scan by hand and with multiple anti malware and antivirus software.  I just don't see any real evidence of infection.  I hope someone else can validate this.
