Is ClamWin itself infected?
It happened to 2 of my USB sticks after they were updated via internet (as per ClamWin) from 2 different XP machines!

It could be that Clamwin didn't have that trojan signature in its database until the latest update. Also, see the previous post on how to verify whether a file is infected and what to do if it is a false positive.

Thank you GuitarBob for your prompt & accurate response!

As per your suggestion, I submitted ClamWinPortable.exe to Jotti's & Virus Total; only ClamAV reported positive. It is most likely a false positive. I have also submitted the file and finding to ClamAV.

Best regards!
