As you can see in the screenshot above, Windows reports that "This digital signature is OK". This implies that the file has been published by F-Secure Corporation and that the file has not been tampered with.

F-Secure Corporation Files

The following are the F-Secure Corporation files I've collected, thanks to the FreeFixer users.

The FreeFixer tool treats files from F-Secure Corporation as trusted, which means that the F-Secure Corporation files will appear with a green background and that there's no removal checkbox for the file. However, as you can see in the scan results below, a few of the anti-virus scanners detects the F-Secure Corporation file(s). I'm pretty sure those detections are false positives and that the files are safe. It is unlikely that F-Secure Corporation would ship a malware file.

Scanner and Detection Names

Here's the detection names for the F-Secure Corporation files. I've grouped the detection names by each scanner engine. Thanks to VirusTotal for the scan results.

As mentioned above, I think these detections are incorrect since it is very unlikely that F-Secure Corporation would ship a malware file.
