Good choice. It's one of the best, though not widely known. I have a set of
recent industry test comparison reports which rate it highly.

To identify the culprit, run Find for "setup.exe". Then right click each in
succession in the Find box. Kaspersky should insert a line in the right
click menu which reads "Antiviral Toolkit" which is the scan command- and
scan each one.

When you find the file that Kaspersky doesn't like, it's probably safer to
delete that file.  Though if you've already run that particular setup file
and installed its particular program, it's either too late (ie you have the
virus) or, if the file came from a known good source and you haven't
noticed any virus-like behaviour, it's a false alarm and probably nothing
to worry about.
