SABnzbd_article_i8jihr failed

Hello, my antivirus software, G-data, reports a virus found: Win32.Malware-gen. When I look in the G-data logs it relates to "SABnzbd_article_i8jihr". SABnzbd connection warnings state "SABnzbd_article_i8jihr failed" and missing.
Is G-data wrong and should it allow this or is there a genuine problem.

Has anybody encountered the same problem?
Thanks in advance.

Well if you are downloading dodgy software, it could contain a virus
and G-data could be right.
In fact each download can potentially contain viruses.
An SABnzbd_article file contains a piece of downloaded data.

Thanks, indeed a virus, but g-data did it's job.
