    Well, I am having an issue with the same file too.

    Today, I ran Norton...yes, I know, Norton sucks.

    Well, I came home to find that several Brazilian Infostealer.Bancos files had been detected on my comp.

    After consulting with some of my friends at ar15.com, I decided to try other virus scanners that had a function that would repair the file. They found NO ISSUE with vaio-sutool.exe...so I ran the uninstall program on that tool. It never uninstalled and still shows up as being an infected file.

    Infostealer.Bancos effects people with Brazilian bank accounts, luckily I live in the US. But it still unnerves me to have a file like this on my computer.


    I checked the properties on the file, and it too points to "xtremedesktops".

    I moved your post to a thread of it's own as the original thread was almost a year old.
