TOBYTOO,
Detections of FP's by any security software is not damaging to the system. It's what the user then chooses to do with them that have the potential for damage.
I've got quite a few demand scanners on mine, every now and then one of them finds something. A few years ago, when I had zero knowledge, my reaction was almost always to delete it. That's probably how I broke my Windows, and eventually had to reinstall it. Now the reaction is totally opposite.
A fairly good sort of procedure is to treat it with suspicion, investigate where the file is using windows explorer, and examine the properties and associations of it. That can get fairly involved when you're new at the game, so a good first port of call is Google. Search the file name. If Google hasn't heard about it as a malware entry, chances are (1) It's safe, very likely, or (2) you're amongst the first users to be affected by a "zero day exploit", not on anybody's definitions lists yet. Much less likely, but possible.
In either case, moving it to quarantine is always the safe option, unless you know it to be harmless. If you strongly suspect it to be harmful, it is still safe in the quarantine.
If, after investigation, you're sure it's a FP, you can send it to the security vendor that detected it. Chances are, this will already have been done by someone else.
