avast found strange file
« on: April 28, 2008, 06:15:50 PM »
this morning I did scan avast 4.8 on my pc and found the following file  C/system.volume.information_restore  A0004106.exe 
I put the file in the chest  and did scan again, everything is OK now.
Do you now about this file? can be a false positive?
thank you

That file came from a restore point. Can't tell you what it is though.

thanks, I am not an expert, do you think can be dangerous? can I live in the chest without problems?

As I said, I don't know what the file is. It's safe in the chest, it can't be accessed or run when it's in there.
