I'm trying to install Drupal 6.13x. When I unzip the file my virus protect quarantines like 4 files:

-translation.module
-profile-wrapper.tpl.php
-drupal-6.13.tar.gz
-color install

Then I upload all the unzipped files, and when I go to my domain it says:

Site off-line
The site is currently not available due to technical problems. Please try again later. Thank you for your understanding.

If you are the maintainer of this site, please check your database settings in the settings.php file and ensure that your hosting provider's database server is running. For more help, see the handbook, or contact your hosting provider.

The mysqli error was: Access denied for user 'xxxxxxxx'@'localhost' to database 'xxxxxxxx_database'.

Any ideas?

the virus issue must be a flase positive. Disable the virus protection before extraction to ensure all files are able to be uploaded and aren't removed from your installation.

The issue with the mysqli, error is that you aren't using the correct information to connect to the database during installation.

I'll turn off my virus protection and see what happens.

If so, it's a false positive:

Okay, I disabled my virus protection, but now it wont allow me to extract the files. It's says, "No files found," "The file is in a unknown format or damaged." I'm using winrar..

no idea, it opens fine for me with winrar

you can try and use 7zip or double check winrar settings to ensure it knows what to do with a .tar.gz archive

Sounds like maybe a problem on your client machine. drupal-6.13.tar.gz has no virus for sure. This sounds like maybe some malware on your client box is PHP aware, or a separate issue in your settings.php. Do you have SSH with your hosting account? Can you just wget the tar.gz directly to your server?

Now Trend Micro does not find viruses in files

modules/translation/translation.module
modules/color/color.install

but it finds

modules/upload/upload.module to have the virus TSPY_MMORPG.NP

Come on Trend Micro... what is going on?

I'm seeing the same thing after a major update to TM on my home PC. After the full system scan, it deleted the Drupal 6 installation files I downloaded and reported that they were infected.

Fortunately for me, this happened only today and the 6.13 updates were installed to the server (which doesn't use Trend Micro) several days ago. Hopefully TM will fix this quick so it doesn't affect too many production sites.
