My testing is not done, so best to be cautious but:
  • Kapersky online scan found no virus
  • Spybot Search & Destroy says it's clean
  • Ad-Aware says clean
  • Anti-virus portion of Comodo Firewall says it's clean
  • WinPatrol says no problem
Could be a false positive, but let me scan it with ClamWin and someone could hit it with AVG as well. THEN we can clear it as a false positive.

One of the reasons I use Avast! is that it is sensitive and sometimes gives false positives as a result. This would be about the fifth false positive so far this year. I'll take a hundred of those before I accept one false negative!

Don't bother with Norton. It reports that WinPatrol is a virus. Best way to knock out the competition is to make people afraid to use it. So Norton is permanently off my list.
