Avast is saying that it found a virus signature in a file embeded within another, most probably a .msi file as it is in the Windows Installer directory tree. It may be a false-positive, or not. It would be useful if you posted up the entire folder path. You could also scan the file using one of the many online scanners to see if other anti-malware products "see" the same problem. Hope this helps. Cheers. Spexx.
