WINDOWS
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
obj[0]=RegData : regfile\shell\open\command

Ad-aware finds it on every re-boot and reports it as a possible virus it is
457 bytes in size, my AV finds nothing neither does Spybot Search &
Destroy, am running W98, hoping it is a false positive but any advice
appreciated.

Ad-Aware recommends adding it to the ignore list.

latest file and it shouldn't be detected, if it is, put it on ignore.
