Today, after start my computer Avast has detected the virus Win-32 Malware gen in the file C:/ WINDOWS/system32/PSDrvCheck.exe.
This file is on my computer for over two years, which has not been modified since 2004 and is a Pinnacle process.
Someone knows if this alarm could be an a new error from Avast ?
Please let me know.
Thank you.

Thanks for that.

We are now having the same problem with C:\Windows\System32\hkcmd.exe.  A lot of our workstations are now showing a Win-32 Malware gen virus in that file.
