I got a pop-up from avast saying it detected a malware infection, well i don't really know if it is but not sure. Would appreciate if someone knew if it was infected, and sorry for my bad English

I'm from Sweden.

Thats the pop up, and sorry it's in Swedish, but i will try to translate.

A suspicious file is found (using the heuristic method). This may be a sign of malware infection. Please send the file to our virus lab for further analysis.

Filename: C: \ Windows \ system32 \ PnkBstrB.exe
Type: hidden services

And the thing is.. I'm the admin on my computer and i can't delete it or turn it off in the Task Manager "Services" it still runs after i exit a game or so.

Thanks in advance.

Interesting. Do you have any game installed that is using Punk Buster anti cheat protection?

Did you send the files for analysis (on the virus alert)?
