This is probably just a false positive, and I can't coerce any information out of Google or the AVG website.
Bon Echo just updated itself and I got another warning from AVG. Same file.

I get also every day a virus warning, but in my case the antivirus software sees a virus signature in urlclassifier2.sqlite in my branch profile. Every day a new fresh virus, generated by Firefox seems plain nonsense to me.

The trojan report is bogus. The xpicleanup.exe file from the 20060916 and 0918 builds are identical in size, and differ by only a single byte (cmp says at char 249, line 2). Builds are also virus scanned automatically.
Please tell AVG that they are making false reports.

the urlclassifier2.sqlite report in comment 3 might be related to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=329715
try removing the file and see if the reports go away.

I sent a request to http://www.grisoft.com/doc/28637/lng/us/tpl/tpl01 to have the signature that AVG Free is detecting in xpicleanup.exe removed as a false postitive, or provide us with more details on any possible problem.
