AVG found this in my computer: adware generic5.KCG C:\programdata\tarma\{889DF117-14D1-44EE-9F31-C5FB5D47F68B}\_setupx.dll
I believe this is Yontoo 1.10.2 AVG removed it, and I then unstalled Yontoo from my computer but after each restarting my computer AVG will find it again, and again....etc..
I ran Spybot Search and Destroy it also found it and removed it.
Now when I run the following:
Spybot, RootAlyzer, tdsskiller, Microsoft Security Essentials and IObit Malware none of these will find it, only AVG will.
? is AVG reporting a false positive??

I ran jotti's scan and found this: AVG found this: Generic5.KCG and eset found:Win32/Adware.Yontoo.B
The other scans found nothing. Should I be concerned?

Well I found it.
To make a long story short I read on the bottom of your: How To Handle Suspicious False Positive Detection? about hidden folders that windows has and how to open then. So I followed your directions and when the hidden folders appeared, right in front of my eye was the file Tarma installer.  Holly s..t, so I scanned it with AVG and sure enough that was the file causing all my positives hits with AVG. I deleted that Tarma installer file and restarted my computer and did another AVG scan...nothing so it gone.  I just want to thank AVG for this forum. I never knew windows had hidden folders or files.
