Im using AVG free version, and it picks up these 2 files as viruses with the virus alert of

virus identified java/openstream

and the virus names of

installerapplet.class

javainstaller.jar-3cc46f89-443cb5ad.zip

These files are located in this directory

application data/sun/java/deployment/cache/javapi/v1.0/jar

since my last virus scan, i was trying to view a trailer of an upcoming movie on a site, i remember there was a note on it that mozilla and firefox users had to install the active x plugin, i didnt select it and thought the trailer might still appear anyway, it didnt so i just left it at that, and im just wondering if these files picked up by AVG as viruses are actually viruses?

Cheers
