Need urgent help:
The scanner found the following(quoting the log):

I cann`t remove it nor delete it or anything else it is "untachable"....
Any help would be much appreciated.Thanks.

See this topic post of mine, there are a few other topics on this. There has been a rash of these detections.

That is what I suspected (outlined in the link I gave) and was hoping that someone would upload to virustotal for confirmation.

Hopefully it has been corrected by a VPS update.
