BG files being detected as virus by other AV. False positive?

[the-termin8r]

Hi everyone,

I run BG with Malwarebytes Premium as well as Norton (yes, I know, spare me the lecture, I didn't pay for it and it's almost expired). For some reason today, Norton flagged and removed some file from 

C:\Users\[NAME]\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\IndexedDB\chrome-extension_ihcjicgdanjaechkgeegckofjjedodee_0.indexeddb.blob\2\00

A bit of digging suggests that the extension is BG. Apparently is detected the file as "Linux.Mirai" Am I right in assuming this is a false positive or has the extension been compromised somehow? I uninstalled and resinstalled the extension and it still got flagged. I'll uninstall it again, just to be on the safe side in case it really is a virus. 

Thanks for any help.

That file is a Browser Guard cache file.  It is not dangerous and is most definitely a Norton false positive.  Go ahead and reinstall Browser Guard.  You may wish to add an exclusion in Norton for the location you mentioned so the silliness stops.

Thanks for the response. Good to know all is fine.
