Plexx said:Some GTA Vice City trainers are unfortunately loaded with old infections. Others, are just false positive since some way or another CheatEngine was used and CE is detected as a PUP usually (the one from the actual official site and scripts compiled by the user himself and not downloadable ones).
MrExplorer said:Avira Would be detecting RainMeter as suspicious it would not say it as exact particular virus.
& GTA Vice City. You would be using Vice City Trainer. It is Virus.

http://rainmeter.net/cms/
What level of sensitivity has you set AVIRA's Heuristics?
Is it possible for you to upload the detected files to VirusTotal and post the links?

Are you sure that these files are not malicious? I strongly advise you to upload these files to virustotal.com to be scanned for malware.
Next, if the scan results are clean, you can add the detected files to Avira exception list.
How to add an exception for Avira products
- Right-click the Avira icon in the task bar and select Start AntiVir.
- Click Configuration, then click the Expert Mode check box.
- Click the + symbol next to Scanner to expand the menu, then click the + symbol next to Scan to expand the menu. Click Exceptions.
- Click the Browse icon and navigate through the file system on your computer to the file you want to exclude from on-demand scanning. Highlight the file and click OK Click Add to add it to the exception list.
- Click the + symbol next to Guard to expand the menu, then click the + symbol next to Scan. Click Exceptions.
- Click the Browse icon in the File Objects to be Omitted by the Guard pane. Navigate to the location of the file you want to exclude from on-access scanning, highlight it and click OK. Click Add to add it to the exception list.
- Click Apply.
- Click OK to close the Configuration window.

Akash209 said:This is the OLD one (May be).... Yah.. its not downloaded by the official site but its a progam similar to GTA VICECITY(some changes with grafics)
malbky said:Certain Vice-city mods especially if you bought them from your local pirate DVD fellow has chat engine scripts. These are usually flagged as suspicious and as Trojans. Not only Avira but other antiviruses like Kaspersky also does it.
Just in case scan those files with MBAM and see the results.
And vice-city trainers are not viruses mr. explorer. They are just hacks and are detected suspicious.
Akash by the way do you use Vice City Punjab/Mumbai City or Star Island mod? As these ones are falled as viruses by many AVs.
