Actually, Virus Total /does/ print the MD5's of the PE sections, and Al
is right, the hex string sigtool says is the signature for
Trojan.Agent-281708 is not among them! So something strange is
definitely going on.

Another strange thing I didn't mention yet is that I first tried to
submit the false positive through the web interface, but it wouldn't
allow me to, because it said ClamAV did not detect any threats in the
file! But my local copy of ClamAV definitely says that it contains
"Trojan.Agent-281708", and so does the copy of ClamAV that Virus Total
uses, apparently.

So weird things are definitely going on. I hope it can be resolved quickly.

If anyone is interested in the file in question, you can download it
from http://www.pepsoft.org/worldpainter/updates/worldpainter_0.8.6.exe

Kind regards,
Pepijn Schmitz
