[help] Is my AV my Flyakite is infected?

I read a while ago that someone with AVG had reported that Flyakite was infected with a trojan which was pretty much dismissed by all but I'm bringing this up because it is slightly different.

Something has been trying to connect to the internet but I haven't worked out what so I've been doing some scans -

AntiVir reported that the file C:WINDOWSFlyakiteOSXToolspskill.exe is infected and carries the SPR/PsKill.A signature.

Avast antivirus, Ewido antitrojan, Spybot and Adaware reported nothing.

I don't believe for one minute Flyakite is shipped with any kind of malware but I'm just trying to work out if the pskill.exe file is a legit Flyakite file, whether it's been taken over by a or it's been planted there somehow or whether anyone else has had reports about this file or whether it's simply likely to be a mistake on AntiVir's part?

pskill.exe is an application to kill tasks to lets flyakite remplace the systems files with no problems.

So it's not dangerous for your computer.

here no probelems at all.... don't believe that Flyakite is infected

You're fine. pskill.exe is part of the package and the installer connects to the interent to look for updates.

"Real" AV tools can tell this is not a virus.

Please, write thread titles in english, will you? - saying "sez" instead of "says" does not make you any cooler, ok?

Also, there is an avedesk subforum - take a wild guess what it is for.

Why is a thread about Flyakite OSX in an AveDesk sub-forum?

BAD SEPH!

@ Seph

"Is my AV my Flyakite is infected?"

The new title makes no sense at all, I wasn't trying to be cool, I'd just spent about 2 hours on MSN Messenger and on that I spell words the way I pronounce them when talking, the title was just a simple mistake.

@ Unbeliever

I'm pretty certain I posted this in the Customizing Windows section. If you look at Seph's post above yours it looks like he may have moved it to the AveDesk forum. [EDIT] Oops - just noticed the bad Seph comment, sorry.

Thanks to the other replies, my mind is at rest now and since only AntiVir picked it up I reckon it is just a false positive or something.
