Yet another False Positive Windows\System32\nvdisp.exe Heur.Suspicious@19987002

I’m using CIS 3.9.95478.509 db1224, with Defense+ set in Clean PC mode, since Comodo has been on my PCs for what seems like six months or so. I shouldn’t have to put D+ into learning mode at this point, should I?

Anyhow, the report is that C:Windows\system32\nvdisp.exe is a virus, but when I sent the nvdisp.exe (nVidia driver) file to VirusScan.org, only CIS reported it as malware. See below. Per instructions, I will send the file to Comodo via email.

This, by the way, is also why CIS should let us submit quarrantined files to other scanners as well as to Comodo. That way we could quarrantine the file, get a quick answer from VirusScan and/or VirusTotal, and then release the file if it turns out to be a false positive without screwing up other processes on our systems.
