I changed the title, Larry, to take out the "update" stuff. That's the problem with looking in multiple places... sometimes you can't remember where you've been
I know that ZoneAlarm is going to treat the Sony stuff like a trojan, and other protective tools (AV, anti-spyware, etc) may also do so. I suspect your burner is okay, and unless the DVD player is fairly new, it's probably fine as well. I wouldn't know where to check if it weren't... perhaps by scanning the drive from another computer?
