[Fixed:] Adware.Mirar.101

Hi,
 
Today I did  a scan and TH found an adware file: C:\Program Files\Brother\BRHL5250\LN5250DN.exe (Adware.Mirar.101)
 
What is this?  My laser printer is a Brother 5250DN.  Why would that be adware?  And should I delete it?  No other programs that I run are tagging this file as adware or a Trojan, only Trojan Hunter.  
 
I have Ewido, Spybot S&D and SpySweeper and they don't tag this as adaware.  I did not delete it in case it is a file I need to run my laser printer.  Could anyone help me with this.
 
I've had the printer for several months and this is the first time TH has tagged it.
 
Thanks!

Welcome to the forum tinamariec,
 
This most definitely sounds like a False Positive by TH.  Would you please send the file LN5250DN.exe to Gavin for a quick analysis.  The submit instructions can be found here.

I have emailed Gavin on this as well.  Sorry for the inconvenience.

Thanks for the welcome!  I was thinking it must be a false positive also.  I'll send the file to Gavin.
 
Thanks!
