BD Internet Security 2008 just identified and moved a file to quarantine that was supposedly infected with Trojan.AgentMB.DWTU1214221. This was an install file for irfanview 4.01. I had done a deep system scan a couple of days and nothing was detected. This file has been on my system for quite awhile. I keep it in a downloaded/installed folder. I've searched for any info on this variant and can't find anything. Anyone know anything?

Sorry, I'm slow. Does "Detection will be removed shortly." mean that this is not a virus or trojan etc. (ie it is nothing to worry about)?

(Bitdefender just did the same quarantining on my machine).

Thanks

Yes, it was a false positive, but it should be fixed using the latest updates.
Have a nice day.
