Is xpsf1.exe part of Spybot S&D?

I installed the latest beta version of spybot this afternoon, and ever since then AVG Free has been detecting xpsf1.exe as a trojan and says spybot is the culprit. Here is a screenshot:

Is it a part of spybot? or is it really a trojan?

I've just looked and I can find no file by that name on my computer so It's either a False Positive or you've become infected.

Your best bet is to wait for an official answer from one of the Moderators.

Standard procedure: Enter the file name into the web search engine of your choice, you'll find quite a few links to that file, such as

Since this file is from another location (not Spybot), you can find that file and upload it To VirusTotal and see if it is flagged:

I'm guessing (I can't confirm it) it is a false positive or a malware infection that hijacks other applications.

Ok thanks, just needed to know. I didn't want to remove it if it was part of spybot.

I can't be sure if it is from Spybot (Terminator also searched, but said there was no file by that name). If you have the time, upload it to VirusTotal and see if it is flagged.

I made sure all files where visable and then I ran a Visual and automated search for the file in question and found ZERO traces of it!

Do as drragostea suggests and upload the file to www.virustotal.com and let them check it out.

We don't install executables into the System32 folder. Well, 2.0 will have one or two files there, but nohting in 1.x.

I just went ahead and removed it with AVG, it's gone and everything seems fine now. I knew it wasn't part of my other programs, as I said I just wanted to make sure it wasn't a spybot file and it obviously wasn't. Thanks for the info.
