although that doesnt sound like an AV problem.
What program is actually saying that? Windows wouldnt normally say you have a virus, it could be a spyware program saying that.

Sounds more like something a rogue anti-spyware program would say, to me. Let us know if it comes back, I know a guy who owns malware removal.
