I just signed up to inform you of the same thing. I'm on the paid for Business version of AVG.

File Name: C:\Program Files\UltraISO\lang\lang_br.dll
Threat name: Trojan horse BackDoor.Ircbot.NLH

Windows 7
Virus DB: 422/3206
AVG version: 10.0.1136

Possibly a false positive.

Edit: Added the AVG Resident Sheild Alert image.

We are sure that all files from us are virus free. Some antivirus tools may report error messages by mistake.

Yes, all my machines with AVG 9 are picking up:

lang\lang_my.dll  Trojan Horse BackDoor IrcBot.NMM
lang\lang_tw.dll   Trojan Horse BackDoor IrcBot.NMN
It took me two hours of testing before I verified that the detection comes from the newly installed files! Ugh...

In the past, I also got a detection on
lang\lang_br.dll
I thought that was a real virus... I deleted UltraISO 9.36 and reinstalled. I then no longer had the issue with AVG 9.  Unfortunately, that is no longer the case with this detection.

Seems UltraISO runs fine with additional language files missing... I think you can simply delete language files you do not need - which seem to be the offending source...

I have written EZB Systems Support on this last night (2AM).  Good to know you are on top of it.  Still, I am very curious - what in your code is being picked up at a virus??? ???
