[QUOTE="Trident, post: 1124773, member: 99014"] What IPV4 packets? This is the executable file Header. The checksum being zero, whilst unusual, is not necessarily a sign of suspicious/malicious intent. A checksum for executable files is not mandatory, it is only mandatory for drivers (sys files). Hence the compiler/linker may have decided not to embed it and the checksum of <nothing> is 0. Or the file could have been damaged, including but not limited to damage by malware disinfection system. The file could have been tampered with for one reason or another. Just this alone is not enough to conclude the file is malicious. [/QUOTE]
