Just updated to 1.34 when this happened.

Is this a false positive? I received a similar result with a scan on 12 February, and only now did it occur to me it might be false:

Would a log in developer mode still be of use to you at this late date? I can supply the following information:

Machine is fully patched. AdAware 2008, SuperAntiSpyware, SpySweeper, SpybotS&D all installed, and none detected any problem. Full time AV is McAfee, ZoneAlarmPro firewall. McAfee turned up nothing, nor did Housecall.

Further, full MBAM scan was run 11 Feb, and it detected nothing. Ran Windows Update 12 Feb, installed new patches, etc., ran MBAM quick scan. Nothing else installed in that time period.

I hope that I posted this correctly. Thanks in advance for your help.

Same here:

Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware 1.34

Database version: 1765

Windows 5.1.2600 Service Pack 3

Scan type: Quick Scan

Objects scanned: 48758

Time elapsed: 4 minute(s), 3 second(s)

Files Infected:

\boot.ini (Trojan.Agent) -> No action taken.

Funny thing is: I ran it a second time, and no detection. Running it a third time as we speak; will do a mbam.exe /debug afterwards

Interesting, I am running a dualboot with Win7 right now.

Copy of my boot.ini as well.

I found that after a reboot that this would pop up again, but repeated scans after an existing one it wouldn't. But not always, I have no idea what's triggering it. It's also not showing up on all of my machines. Just this one.

I'd like to report in that my MBAM has also detected boot.ini as a False Positive.

Unfortunately, I was unable to recreate the FP in Developer Mode, so here is the original log:
