Woke up to find this.

According to other forums it should be a false positive.

----------- SCAN SUMMARY -----------
Known viruses: 1425552
Engine version: 0.97.6
Infected files: 9
Data scanned: 17584.79 MB
Data read: 21013.79 MB (ratio 0.84:1)

Just wanted to point this out and get a second opinion on it.

If there has been no change to the Chrome folder on your computer, then it is probably a false positive detection, and you should upload the file(s) to Clam AV via the Submit a File option on their main web page so they can correct their signature. Note that there is now a separate form for submitting false positives.

You can verify a file, of course, by uploading it to one of three online scanning services: Jotti, Virus Total, or VirScan. They are all good services that use multiple antivirus programs to scan your files.

If it is a false positive, exclude the file(s) from ClamWin scans via Configure, Filters, Exclude Matching filenames for 2 or 3 days--Clam AV will probably have corrected their signature by then.

Ran it through Jotti and only Clam AV reported a problem. Good call on those Scanning services.
