Hi there

I updated my definitions today (2.6.2006) and did a scan.
Spybot found "Wincontrol" - Keylogger in C:\Windows\SETUP1.exe

I did some other scans at
www.virustotal.com
http://virusscan.jotti.org/

and

with my resident Kaspersky

and

with ad-aware se & AČ

no scanner found anything

Therefore I browsed this forum and found some related topics to the file C:\Windows\SETUP1:

The File identifies itself as MS Visual Basic....again

I suspect it to be a false positive since it appeared after installing the latest definitions which added Wincontrol.

I copied the md5 sum and the results of the online scan for further study:
