Virus? Trojan Horse Dropper.Agent.JOC

I really need some help with this.

My AVG Antivirus found this "Trojan Horse Dropper.Agent.JOC." It was located
in C:\Program Files\Common Files\InstallShield\Engine\6\Intel 32

Is there away to find out information about this? If it is a virus? I have
done some research on the internet and have read several articles. I am not
for certain if its a "false positive" and restore it OR if I should delete it
from the Vault?

Really Appreciate your help.

The Trojan Horse Dropper.Agent.JOC is a little different from the one in the
majorgeeks article. Appreciate your help.

The thing is that I am not actually sure if this is indeed a virus. I am
trying to see if its a "false" positive.

If you hear hoofbeats, think horses, not zebras.

Do whatever's necessary to get rid of it.

If it is, indeed, a 'false positive,' you can reinstall it from its
legitimate sponsors.

Actually, I just finished reading some more articles and the conclusion was
that it was a "false positive". I restored the file to its original
location. Ran AVG with the latest updates and it no longer detects it as a
virus. THANKS
