    Can't delete reg trojan.agent (Malwarebytes)


    Hello,
    I ran a full system scan with malwarebytes and found this:

    Registry Keys Detected: 1
    HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run (Trojan.Agent) -> Quarantined and deleted successfully.

    malwarebytes then prompted me to restart my computer, so I did.

    I ran the scan after restart and found it again. Could someone help me remove this please? or tell me it's just a fail alarm?

    thanks,
      My Computer

    Update Malwarebytes definitions. It is a false positive from a bad definition update. (v2012.6.14.01)
