2 False Positives - Virust Total says both ok

Ran malwarebytes and the only 2 files it hit on are SERVICES and SYSTEM 47

SERVICES is in the System32/drivers/etc folder where it should be. It was created in 1999 the same date as my host and other files in that folder (when the windows 2000 files were created by microsoft).

SYSTEM 47 is a screensaver ive used on and off for years with no issues. I scanned it with AVG originally as I do all files I download. Especially freeware.

I scanned both of these files with Virustotal online and none of the scan engines found problems with either file.

Here is the virustotal scan results pages for the SERVICES file.

C:\WINNT.0\system32\drivers\etc\services <- this file is not within a zone subject to Heuristics.Reserved.Word.Exploit , I am unsure why it was on your system although it is likely an issue with how your environmental variables are registered .

I can fix both of these none the less though .
