 Make sure you uncheck PUPs before the scan. Verify anything it
detects for false positives on viruscan.jotti.org.
 Bitdefender flags almost anything compiled with masm as
malware, and also hates Nir software, anything with "toolbar" in the
name, even if it's not a browser toolbar.
 Lots of malware detection is not always lots of malware. Did
you check the detected "malware" before blindly deleting them ?
