W32.Trojan.Gen detected in SpoonUninstaller.exe

[simoncn]

My antivirus program (WebRoot) has detected a W32.Trojan.Gen infection in C:\Windows\System32\SpoonUninstaller.exe. Has anyone else seen this?

Is it possible that something nasty on my machine has infected this file? Can I do a CRC or MD5 check to confirm that the file is uninfected? The modification date is 28/09/2015 15:03 and the file size is 5,938,792 bytes.

Visit:

https://www.virustotal.com/

and upload the file to be checked by 20 different virus checkers.

It will be a false positive, report the file to your anti-virus provider.

Thanks! I have done this and there is one virus report from ByteHero. All other results are good. WebRoot is not on the list of checkers used. I will report this to WebRoot.
