Hi,

I'm kinda wondering if I might have a problem? I'm hoping this is just a false positive. A couple of days ago my McAfee virus scanner showed the computer had a p2p worm. Which is strange because I don't have a p2p program. So I went to the McAfee forum and asked and they said I might've picked it up from a website. I'd said my guess was it came from Live Journal. Live Journal has so much crap loading underneath (like scripts)...I just had a feeling I picked it up from there. Anyway, they said I didn't really have anything to worry about and I'd caught it in time.

Anyway, since this scare I'd decided to let Malwarebytes scan on the full setting for a few days. Today the program picked up something:

Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware 1.50.1.1100

Database version: 6206

Windows 5.1.2600 Service Pack 3

Is this a false positive? Can somebody help me if it isn't? Thank you. :)

Hello, and welcome to the forum.

Based on this earlier report in our False Positives forum, it may have been.

As you did not remove it, update definitions, and rescan, please.

Thank you very much for the reply. I appreciate it. :) I'll update in a few minutes and rescan. I'll swing by either tonight or tomorrow and post my results.
