Password Protected

This is my first visit to the forum and I can not find anything on my problem (maybe I am not searching correctly !) but...

From time to time Bitdefender returns a message indicating that he can not analyse a file because it is password protected. These files are always in the MS "backup", are files that I recognize as having modified recently and are files that I have never put a password on.

What is happening ? Am I infected by something ?

Get those files scanned by virustotal service and if its a bug use the sample submission thread and atach those files there for analysis.

Thank you for the virustotal site - I put it in my "favorites" for future use.

Sorry it took so long to get back but I had to first unzip the backup files and since the connection was really slow yesterday I gave up on tryinh to transmit the files.

Now for the results : Sunbelt found that one of the unziped files was "encrypted archive" ???

Virustotal indicated that the other file was too big (35Mo) to process.

Please pack the file(s) in an archive, protected with the password infected.

Upload it on www.rapidshare.com or other server and leave here the download link
