Avira scanned and found nothing. Super anti spyware claims Trojan.Agent.ATV in a file. Maleware Bytes is also not finding anything in the file. Super Anti spyware says it needs to restart to remove it, but the file is always there and infected. This is for a program file from a program I downloaded.
Is this a false positive? I deleted the file, but running the program creates the file again in the same folder.
This is what super anti spyware says about it

chances are it's a false alarm because if avira can't catch it.. i really doubt a spyware scanner would catch it, you have to say what program it is that you downloaded or else we can't tell from what you've given us
i'm guessing you got this program from a torrent, just check the comments left behind by people who've downloaded it, i'm sure someone will point out that there's a virus detected and perhaps someone will point out that it isn't a virus
Trojan or false alarm?
