SCAN MAKES REPORT ON MALWARE BUT DOES NOT OFFER A SOLUTION!
Hi, my F-Secure keeps finding the same 2 malware files but says that I need to delete them 'manually'. They are not held in quarantine so where do I find them please? Result: 2 malware found

Hi tebo,
I checked with our labs regarding your scan report. The path seems to indicate a compressed folder under '\Uninstall.exe\stream_2.bin', so the detections might have been triggered in another binary located inside uninstall.exe.
Since this is a PUA developed by Spigot, we'd recommend to follow the instructions provided by the developer on how to uninstall it:
