Running: Clamwin 0.87.1, main: 34, daily: 1219
Platform: Windows XP SP2 (WinNT 5.01.2600)
MSIE: Internet Explorer v6.00 SP2 (6.00.2900.2180)


ClamWin detected w32.Jeefo on my system, and following some research on the net, I found that this virus typically installs a registry key called "PowerManager" - yet no such key exists on my system (I searched manually and with the "find" feature). Here is the virus log output:

-- summary --
Known viruses: 42042
Engine version: 0.87.1
Scanned directories: 6042
Scanned files: 113023
Infected files: 7
Data scanned: 59811.58 MB
Time: 11130.473 sec (185 m 30 s)

I have taken a few SANS courses, so several of the hits are on files that I have downloaded - and the ie-vun.htm page I wrote to illustrate a vulnerability for one of my clients, and a method of stopping it via http proxies (prior to IE patches coming out). These files always hit on the scan and I leave them alone - this way I know that the scanner is working!

Could this possibly be a false positive?

Thanks

i don't think it is a false positive, looks like the real virus. You can use https://www.virustotal.com www.virustotal.com to scan the file online with different a/v programs

Thanks - I did just that - I appears to be a virus file, after deletion and rerunning ClamWin I appear to be fine - no services or registry keys that are unusual....
