Windows 7: hdwwizb.exe ?

For the last week or so, since I installed AVG, I've been getting alerts that it found a file called hdwwizb.exe that isn't right. What can I do to make this stop ? Is the file something bad and is just being flagged incorrectly ? Is there any way to get AVG free to ignore the file ?

Are you sure you copied the error correctly?
The error looks like a driver error. Have you updated all the drives recently?
IMO....I would uninstall AVG and download Avast or MSE as your AV program and see if error comes up then.
Both of these AV programs are free.

It might be spyware. Try Free version of MalwareBytes

Run Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware to see if it picks it up too. It could be a 'false/positive' ...

I am outranked..................Run Malwarebytes first .....Then get rid of AVG IMO

Pretty sure it's a Trojan ... it has a "b" at the end.

Hdwwiz.exe helps you install driver software to support older devices that do not support Plug-and-Play

Looks like it. From Prevx:

Malwarebytes didn't find it....

I have never update any drivers. It's a new computer.

I tried Malwarebytes, but it's a stupid program. When it was finished, and I removed what it found, it made my computer restart. I was in the middle of something. I looked but I didn't see anything about an option to restart the computer or not. If it's going to do this, I'm getting rid of it.
