TROJAN Infestation

[J.P.]

I have Trojan corruption in following file
C\Users\JJP\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\ProgramFiles\OnlineServices\MSN90\pkgs\msnmsgs.msi(en.ace)
Date installed 02-12-2008, Size 105 MB. Only download on that date has
nothing to-do with file. Tried fixing and cleaning to no avail. Tried
numerous antimalware: SpyBot, Housecall, Windows Live one, Lava soft
Ad-Aware Plus, system restore prior to 2-12, Trend Micro Internet Security
Pro. I've tried to determine if file is essential, unable so far. Any and
all suggestions appreciated. PC, HP Pavilion, Vista Home Premium. Be Well

That a Microsoft Installer Packaged file. It is a compressed installer as well.

I may be corrupted but I truly doubt malware is the cause.

What makes you think there is a Trojan based corruption in this MSI file ?
