I have deleted the .vmdk file from my MAC, I can restore it via timemachine, not knowing if I have a problem or not, I decided to delete it until I have this issue resolved.
All my scans within the Virtual machine are done as “through scans” Setting are for all directories...
When I am in the virtual machine and scanning, I scan all files including those that are shared between my MAC and the Virtual PC, the shared documents are in a directory on my MAC called “documents” and in there is a subdirectory called virtual machines which contains the .vmdk file. So that is how the scan of them is being done.
I have some further information;
I did a couple of other things to see if I have a virus of not and I am more confused now. Here is what I did
I downloaded Spybot like was suggested on the forum, I ran Spybot and only found tracking cookies - deleted them
I then set up Avast to do scan when I booted my XP on my virtual machine, here is the log which shows NO INFECTION at all

I then closed XP and then VMFusion and did a scan from the MAC side and got the following
XP home Edition Package 4 items, 0 Warnings, 4 Viruses
XP Home Edition-000001.vmdk Win3:Hupigon-ONX [Trj]
XP Home Edition-000002.vmdk Win3:Hupigon-ONX [Trj]
XP Home Edition-000003.vmdk Win3:Agent-COH [trj]
XP Home Edition-vmdk Win3:Hupigon-ONX [Trj]
I then opened up VMFusion, started the Virtual Machine without a scan and then scanned the virtual machine as I have done before and got the same results:
XP Home Edition-000001.vmdk Win3:Hupigon-ONX [Trj]
XP Home Edition-000002.vmdk Win3:Hupigon-ONX [Trj]
XP Home Edition-000003.vmdk Win3:Agent-COH [trj]
XP Home Edition-vmdk Win3:Hupigon-ONX [Trj]
Now which one do I believe? Do I have an infection virtual PC or not?
Additional information:
I have a MACBookPro running OS 10.6.4 and I am running VMFusion version 3.0.2 I have Avast HomePro version 2.7.4 on my MAC and version 4.8 on my virtual PC.
