SE caught a trojan or is it misslabeled

Hi Spyware Exterminator caught a trojan called "Trojan Win 32 FTP Attack" in
the C:\WINDOWS\CREATOR\Remind_XP.exe, file. Now I would normally delete this
and move on, however the last time I attempted recovery the error message
PRELOAD is missing or corruppted flashed while recovering. The computer got
stuck while reloading for about a day or two. I attempted and completed a
DESTRUCTIVE RECOVERY, which brings me to the point of having another
trojan??? (or legit program labeled as a trojan). I ALSO USED SYSTEM
MECHANIC TO DELETE UNNECESSARY FILES -------WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK??????

That file (Remind_XP.exe) is legit: Subscription reminder to unlock

Spyware Exterminator is an untrustworthy, "rogue" (bogus) anti-spyware
application. Get rid of it immediately! See its listing at MVP Eric Howes'
