Hi Gary,
sorry but your virus program gives false detection.
You can upload the file to virustotal.com, and see the scores of all 70 virus detectors.
With every version of GSB the file pattern changes and often false positive goes away.
see https://trademaid.info/forum/viewthread.php?tid=64#pid2275
Its best to exclude c:\gsb\

Gary, When you download GSB executables (or update using the Resource Manager) first whitelist any new GSB executable in your internet security software before running. Good luck

When I try to use this software and this url I am suddenly getting many adds in the lower right of my monitor trying to get me to click on messages claiming i have viruses , malware and the like; norton and Mcafee warnings; this and that - these are all malicious adds, but very annoying and destructive. It seems that this results from accessing this url and this
site.

Thank you for your comments. Anti virus programs often have given false positives with GSB, but never in GSB history has adverts, malware or actual virus's happened.
The source of your malware will not be GSB.

If you are stuck, you can email me the two teamviewer.com codes and I can look.
Not related but all programs will soon be digitally signed which will reduce false positives.
