Is this a malicious file that keeps showing up in avast bootscan?

These 4 Show up during the scan, are these anything to worry about?

Let me put it this way. If the anti virus I trusted kept showing these things as unwanted they would be gone. You can Google them and make a decision.

No,they are false positives

I take it that Googling thing worked out well for you. If you ever get in the mood give MSE a try.
Microsoft Security Essentials - Free Antivirus for Windows

Why should one google stuffs ,when its clear from the logs

CAB archive file is corrupted and avast is unable to read it,so marks it as suspicious

I stopped using it as it showed no problems however when I did an online scan using one of the paid apps I had plenty viruses.

I should have clarified that avast wasn't saying itself these were malicious, it just kept showing those files to the side I guess because they were corrupted.

I uninstalled Skype Click to call and none of the files are showing up in bootscan now.

From the message you post here, it doesn't shows any infection or whatever, it just says "file corrupted", which means it can't access it and is totally unusable (even for good purposes). It seems just as a warning of a damaged file, not a virus or anything like that. The fact that the CAB is damaged means that the antivirus cannot analyze it and maybe Avast is promptly to warn you about that.

But when in doubt, I prefer to recur to VirusTotal. It's an online site where you can upload files and have them analyzed by a variety of antiviruses on the cloud: https://www.virustotal.com/
