I'm hoping this is a false positive (more after the report)

Using the right-click context scan on the file results in the malware portion detecting FakeAlert, though the heuristic (which I understand is being worked on) detects nothing.

Something somewhat unexpected was, when I copied msvideo.dll to a folder I've set aside for possible false positives (for ease of locating at a later date) the copy was not considered bad by the single file scan or the full scan (after I added the folder for possible false positives as a download directory for the purpose of the scan) though the original file still tested positive with both. I ran the copy through some online scans (which came back negative) before I noticed the above, so I'll understand if you want me to try sending the original through them.

Finally, the description SpyBot gives indicates that FakeAlert creates an autorun entry but I don't see anything that arouses my suspicion.
