It appears to be a program in Office 11 (?) I don't have either Office 2003 or Excell 2003 installed on this computer but do have files generated in that program. Doesn't update via Windows Update & though Secunia says I can manually update via Update I can't see how.

If U do not have any MS Office 2003 installed on that PC just delete the offending file.

DELETING A FILE OR FOLDER USING PSI VERSION 2

1. Open PSI>Scan results.

2. Against the programme marked as vulnerable is a + sign to the left of it.

3. Click that & it will reveal DETECTED INSTANCES.

4. Below that are two yellow folders. Click the one WITHOUT a red dot.

5. That will open Windows Explorer & U will be able to see the vulnerable file.
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\EXCEL.EXE, version 11.0.8328.0

6. Right click on that file & select delete.

7. Carry out a full PSI scan & all should be in order.
