I installed Revo Uninstaller from the list of freeware applications to replace commercial ones. I also recently downlaoded the trial version of a2 Anti-Malware.
Yesterday I put the computer up to do a a2 scan, and I was surprised to see that Revo Uninstaller was classified as a trojan.
Here is the entry:
C:\Program Files\VS Revo Group\Revo Uninstaller\uninst.exe detected: Trojan-Clicker.Win32.VB.vx
I'm pretty sure it's a false positive (at least, I hope so) and I have submitted the file for analysis to the a2 team. So can someone here help me confirm whether it's a legitimate trojan or a false positive?

"If a man is offered a fact which goes against his instincts, he will scrutinize it closely, and unless the evidence is overwhelming, he will refuse to believe it. If, on the other hand, he is offered something which affords a reason for acting in accordance to his instincts, he will accept it even on the slightest evidence. The origin of myths is explained in this way." - Bertrand Russell

Yes, a2 team suggested I upload the file. I have already did, and I'm sure they will respond soon. I'm very sure it's a false positive now, since you and the a2 team think it's a false positive.
And thanks for the suggestion of AVG. But truth be told, I already had it installed on my computer with a2, Spybot, and SUPERAntiSpyware.
Thanks!
