I updated to the following definitions last night:

main.cld is up to date (version: 51, sigs: 545035, f-level: 42, builder: sven)
daily.cld updated (version: 10021, sigs: 105524, f-level: 44, builder: guitar)

and found that ClamWin had a false-positive.

C:\Documents and Settings\~\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\Application\4.0.237.0\chrome.dll: W32.Virut.Gen.D-146 FOUND

Clam AV furnishes the scanning engine and signature database/updates for ClamWin. The Virut generic signatures give some false positives on certain Windows/Office files. You should upload a copy to Clam of any files that are falsely identified as having a virus. Go to https://www.clamav.net/sendvirus/ to submit the file. If the file is too large to submit to Clam, please get back to us here and let us know.
