Is this a false positive?
« on: January 21, 2010, 08:14:26 PM »
I use Sun Virtual Box, in which I've made a virtual hard drive with the name "Win XP.vdi"

I just ran a thorough scan and avast detected this virtual drive "Win XP.vdi" as a threat (please see attached image)
I can't even upload it to virustotal as it is 9GB plus  :P

Please tell me is it a false positive?

Thanks in advance

Regards.

Okay...

So does it scan the whole .vdi (virtual drive) file?

I'll recheck it after scanning the operating system in virtual Box...

And thanks for your response   ;D
