Have been using the free version of AVG for a year + and have
never had it report any hits on virus, etc. Downloaded the
latest update this AM  and then ran a scan. It came back with
the following:

File: MPEGStreamDemuxer.dll

Infected with: Downloader.agent.knw

Is this a "false positive" scan finding or the real thing ??

I rarely use the computer which Roxio is on for Internet activity so
that's why I'm wondering if it for real.

I believe that it is a false positive.  It has happened in one download for EMC 9, too.

I had the same trojan, I am on the internet daily.  I also found the Trojan in SystemVolumeInformation\_restore the object name was AO127570.dlll  Could it have been a backup file when I did a system restore recently?

That would be the backup of that Mpegstreamdemuxer.dll, but it's still a false positive, NOT a trojan.

It seems to have mended itself now on my machine following AVG update, don't forget to restore the original file from the virus vault
