I went to this site. DL'ed FP Clean as an Install file
Selected RUN
After it ran and installed, Windows Live One Care came up with this;
Virus BAT/Delwin.AZ Quarantined.
Name: Trojan.BAT.Delwin.az
Description:
A trojan, also known as a trojan horse, is simply a program that pretends to
be something else.
Why are trojans or trojan horses so dangerous? The basic idea is that you
download a program, for example one that you think is some sort a game demo.
When you run the demo, to your surprise, nothing happens. Or so you thought.
What may have happened is that you've just unwittingly run some form of
program that has planted itself on your hard drive. Perhaps it's going to be
a very basic application, and simply delete some files on your system.
Perhaps it's an even more sinister tool that will actually give other people
full access to your hard drive and system. Sounds ridiculous? It happens
literally every single day, to computer users all around the world.
