Virus.DOS.MtE.a
Each time I've run Ad-Aware over the last few days it finds the same virus: Virus.DOS.MtE.a (v)
It is found in the following location: c:\windows\ie8updates\kb978207-ie8\reg00008
I keep using Ad-Aware to repair this file (by choosing the recommended action) and then restart my computer, as recommended. This "virus" keeps turning up again, however, the next time I scan with Ad-aware. In fact, I just finished repairing this file and then rebooted... and then scanned with Ad-Aware again - and it found this same virus again!
I update Ad-Aware each time before using it. I now have Version 9.0.2.
So, could this be a false positive? Any suggestions?
Thanks!
