| Most likely a FP, yes.
There is a note on that download page: quote: Some users have reported that their anti-virus software has alerted them to a virus during installation of ZoneLog Analyser, these are false alerts. We are using the most recent versions of different Antivirus Programs on all of our computers and development systems, to ensure a maximum protection. You can be sure that our software, which you download from the sites below, do not contain viruses.
But I'll send MS the file and ask them to see about fixing it. -- It takes a disaster to make a woman out of a female Gladiator Security Forum Proud Member of ASAP (Alliance of Security Analysis Professionals) |

  Jim Gurd Premium join:2000-07-08 Plymouth, MI | reply to Lappen I'm not surprised. I got several FP's when I tried it. It's now gone from my machine. They need to work out quite a few bugs before this thing comes out of beta. |

| Got this reply from the developer
I can confirm it is a false positive, the file in question is a temporary file created by the installer to clean up other temporary files it has created after the next reboot. It has often been flagged, falsely, as virus or malware simply because it is programmed in Delphi, a common programming language seemingly used by the malware programmers, and, presumably, has a fairly basic signature.
