CrazyBull Trojan !!!! HUH?

Hi all. need a lil help on this. im running windows 2000 and i recently did a scan for trojans using TrojanHunter and it found this.

Found possible trojan file: C:\Program Files\Creative\MediaSoure\RemoteControl\CTRemote.d ll (CrazyBull)

i have a Audigy 2 ex and this is apparently where its located.Now i did a virus scan with Norton anti-virus 2003 and it found nothing ( with latest updates). I also trawled there online database and found no ref to CrazyBull or w32/crazybull. However when you do a google search a few forign sites come up with this trojan.

Is it Hoax is it real or what?
Also below ive posted my scan from Hijckthis if someone could take a look id appreciate it.

I can't tell you about your log, but I can tell you that Norton (and most antivirus programs) don't pay any attention to most trojans. If I understand it correctly, they don't consider a trojan to be a virus partly because you usually have to give some kind of permission to install the trojan. It may be quite hidden, but apparently it is there.

Hang on for a while and some of the experts will be along to tell you about the log....

Off topic, but McaFee catches trojans all the time. I am using their online version [it's on my computer but without taking up the space]. Used it for awhile and they have caught and cleaned 3 or 4 of the nasties.

Most will catch a few and I think that may have to do with how they are delivered, but it is not a good idea to rely on them for your virus protection. A firewall and careful downloading are probably the best protections, followed by regular scans....

The important part is highlited above.... Are you scanning with heuristics ? If so, that raises the false positives rate. I think there is a setting to lower false positives.... check your settings in TH. I highly doubt that you have a trojan.

trojan crazy bull

Just to reply to a few and to add a lil extra.with my fire wall i run with the heuristics as high as poss in both auto-protect and maual scans. i also keep my anti virus uptodate with with the inteligent updater. as for my firewall when im not using an application to access the net i usually block its access. only things that have constant access are things like firewall/anti-virus/msn messenger/ outlook/ie and netmeeting. in fact i just checked and thats the lot. ive also only just (about a week ago) reformated so everthing is prety much a clean install of drivers and such. and im very perticular about d/l from dodgy sites. i wasnt totally confinced i had a trojan but then i dont know everything and when i dont know i like to ask. so thanks again to all the peeps that have replyed so far and ill continue to check see if any more has been added.
