I googled it before, and doesnt tell me if its, suspiciuos file or a virus.

Heur is a alghorythm that antiViruses use to find new unknown Viruses.

Crypted means that the file is crypted to hide the code (so no virus-scan can find out what it is - also used to protect programs from crackers)

greetings

I think its a virus
