Microsoft Security Essentials detected Google Chrome as a Password Stealer:
PWS:Win32/Zbot
Category: Password Stealer
Description: This program is dangerous and captures user passwords.
Recommended action: Remove this software immediately.

file:%LocalAppData%\Google\Chrome\Temp\source\Chrome-bin\chrome.exe
I can't tell if it's a particular extension that I tried to synch from my other machine, the chrome application itself, or just a false positive. I've run a full scan on the another machine that Chrome is synched with and nothing was detected.
Should I be worried? What can I do to get rid of it?
