    I'm not upset about the CD. I'm annoyed that I cannot remove the alert in any way apparently except for allowing a now nonexistent file that I never even accessed.

    How can I get rid of a virus alert from defender?

    Defender detected a virus on a CD and since it obviously cannot remove, clean or quarantine it (because it's a CD), the alert is stuck in the UI and I always get a pop-up in the taskbar and the icon...
