    Avira flagged a couple GlaryPortable entries a few weeks ago. Although I believe Glary to be trusted, I deleted it.

    from looking at the type reported ill bet its from the type on coding used or the program used to pack it. imo its prob not a virus and most likely a false positive. if you want i can look at the file or you can upload it to kaspersky to check also they are usually good about sending back a report.
