It appears that this is a false positive, maybe even a file the scanner companies are paid to identify by software manufacturers... who knows, but I'll give it a go.

Using a process monitor I could trace this software. The first thing it does is reading and writing to Norton antivirus files. (the antivirus software I had installed - but disabled - on that machine. It also do other suspicious operations like writes to Windows drivers files and so on. So yes, it's malware clearly enough for me.
