C:\WINDOWS\Installer\5a2172e.msp: W32.Virut.Gen.D-159 FOUND
I see this one has come up on other's scans. It's too big a file to send off to jotti or ClamAV. I'll ignore it - right?

Hello,
It's likely to be a false positive. To make sure you can double check by installing a resident AV tool (does not conflict with Clamwin as this is only on demand scanner) or make a check with an online scanner (see the Anti Malware link on Clamwin's webpage) and see what comes up. If the two scans do no detect malware then this is a false positive.
Regards,
Antonio

I'm not sure, but someone else may have already reported this. Alch has been sending the Virut false positive samples from users to Clam AV for correction, since they are usually so large. Give Clam a day or so, and if it hasn't been fixed, get back here and let us know about it so we can arrange to upload it to them..
Regards,
