I assume it is a false positive but I still wanted to post about this here, in case someone reached out to Lenovo or Symantec about this.
It is also strange that while it was reported back in 2011 today is the first time I was warned by Norton about this.

If you're going to pay for anti-virus, you may as well get NOD32 and call it a day. Otherwise, I'd recommend MSE.

But either way, Norton does not enter into the picture. There's a reason for that.
