Rather than re-explaining the whole thing, please refer https://forum.piriform.com/index.php?showtopic=16532 here for my issue on a similar vein. Why is clamwin reporting a false positive?

Hello,

If the file is really a false positive pls inform the ClamAV team by submitting a notification using the form at https://cgi.clamav.net/sendvirus.cgi

Normally the issue is fixed rapidly and the file won't be reported on next ClamWin scans anymore. Useless to say this will help Clam to become more efficient and accurate.

Regards,
Antonio
