Ha Kodhee,
Thanks. I always keep my antivirus up to date. So that might be the reason no virus is detected (asuming it was a false detection as well).

Hi Steven,
Thanks for the reply. The issue is I just cannot view the info.zip file. Because the scanner detects the file I guess it's present. The good news is that this info.zip file should not be present in the folders. So, íf i can view it, there's no problem deleting it.
My point is that I hoped the scanner would delete the file, but it does not.
Thanks,
Jan

Perhaps it is embedded in another zip file?
It is a bit troubling, you should be able to find it (since the system says it didn't delete it).
