That is not enough information to know if the item is in our detections. :)

Please list:

The operating system.
Other security programs installed.
Your version of Spybot and when the definitions were last updated.

Hello trackfodder,

system win 7 (counterfeit) service pack 1

win 7 (counterfeit)?

You might want to check your operating system here: Validate Windows (http://www.microsoft.com/Genuine/) so that Microsoft can assist in helping you out if necessary. :)

Do you have an anti virus program or Microsoft Security Essentials installed?

Best regards.
