Norton 360 just found two trojan threats in the following 2025 Adobe CC programs: Media Encoder and Premier Pro. These 2025 updates were automatic from Creative Cloud. Please tell me how this can happen.

did you install using the cc desktop app downloaded from adobe.com?

[cary3533841036m1]

Yes

then it's a false positive or your computer was infected from elsewhere.

When I down loaded the updates from abobe the anti virus software did not flag it. It's been about two weeks since. In that time I've run multiple virus scans on the Mac and nothing has been flagged. Today when I launched premiere it was flagged. Having worked for many years in product development on editing systems. I am keenly aware of "it's not my problem" attitude. Once is an anomaly. Twice may be as well.  30+ is not an anomaly.  Thanks for your input. I will file it away for now.

you're welcome

Same with AVAST field shield alert. Why would Adobe, an US company, include an app with RU suffix?

[kglad]

that may be a russian language version or maybe your computer's infected.
