Hi Alain,
Here is the MD5 sums of the files you requested.
9652e7d2d40f72c4f4acec0e2dea28a1 chrome.7z
5974bc2d26dc0f1e9755ccc2806cfda2 chrome.dll
Again this is possible false positive is in the same folder location as
before and here is the excerpt from the log:
C:\Documents and Settings\Frank\Local Settings\Application
Data\Google\Chrome\Application\18.0.1025.162\chrome.dll:
W32.Virut.Gen.D-148 FOUND
C:\Documents and Settings\Frank\Local Settings\Application
Data\Google\Chrome\Application\18.0.1025.162\Installer\chrome.7z:
W32.Virut.Gen.D-148 FOUND
Other MS Windows systems that I did clamscan on show the same thing.
Thank you,
Frank
