I have "installed" this utility, which I downloaded from PC911 (not a shadow on PCMech!!) and Norton AntiVirus is picking it up as a malicious script when I try to use it. Would it be dangerous to ignore this warning?

What is the "utility" supposed to do? You can use http://housecall.antivirus.com as a second opinion; or just email it in a zip file to a hotmail account and have Trend Micro give you a second opinion.

"Move Or Copy Any File Or Folder Anywhere On Your Hard Drive Or Even On Your Network With A Right Click Microsoft has the SendTo Any Folder Power Toy which will do basically exactly
what this script will do, but unfortunately it has a bug that causes a problem with other items in your SendTo folder. While the problem can be repaired (see SendTo Power Toy in the Customizations section) we thought we would come up with a solution of our own instead, so Script God Steve Yandl
worked his magic."

Thanks for the response and suggestions. I had the utility scanned at Hotmail as suggested and it was found clear. I then used it, overriding the warning, and all was OK!
