Title: Eeek! Trojan!

My AVG scan picked up Trojan horse Generic 10.BHES this morning. It's now in the virus vault. Anyone know what it is?

I think it's something to do with an adobe update/attachment?  I don't use AVG but I'm assuming the 'vault' is like quarantine?  In which case I'd delete and re-scan.

It is a false positive, it's just the adobe acrobat language pack file.
Restore the file from the virus vault if AVG is still using virus database version 270.5.5/1569 then update it scan your computer again and it should come up clean.

I saved all that hassle by switching to Ubuntu OS, doesn't need a virus scanner.
