I get this message after i scanned my computer with Antivir:

"The file imscan.dll contains signature of the Micro-128© virus"

Is really a virus?

Thx!

No, you couldn't possibly be infected. I think that's a false positive.

Probably is, AntiVir is known for giving false positive's.

You can upload the file to http://www.gietl.com/test-clamav/ then let it scan if it can detect anything.

Does jotti scan archives, such as rar?

Edit: Nevermind it scanned a zip file. Now to notify Esset and Grisoft about a false positive.
