    could this be same file? and are they false positives?
    i did a scan using spybot, ad-aware, and zass and found nothing.
    i'd appreciate any suggestions. TNX :)

    Do you scan really with the latest signature updates? Check your signature count on the Status screen with the signature count at our website.
    If your are using the latest updates, then please send us a copy of this detected LinkCreator.exe:

    We checked this file and with the latest signature Updates, it will not be detected, so please download the latest signature updates for the AVG Anti-Spyware.
