Rogue.Installer Found & Deleted - Wrong Thing to do?

[Windey]

My last scan found "Rogue.Installer" under C:\Program Files\setup.exe. I deleted this with MBAM. After some reading here, I'm wondering if I deleted something that I actually needed and if this was a False Positive? I wasn't aware that Malwarebytes had False Positives. Thanks for any help.

• ISSUE: I've ran a scan with Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and it says something is infected but I don't think it is
  SOLUTION: Before reporting a false positive, you need to save a log in developer mode. This will allow us to figure out how the false positive came to be. Simply follow these directions.
  
  • Click the Start Menu
    
  • Click Run (On Vista/Windows 7 you can type in the search line)
    
  • Type in "mbam.exe /developer", without the quotes
    
  • Run the same type of scan you did before and save the logfile and post it in a NEW post here
