Hi,
today I updated my avira AV and after I updated it.. I did a scan with Hitman Pro 3.7.14
it detected these "suspicious threats" 

avipbb.sys
avgntflt.sys

I also reconnised that my PC is booting up slower than usual it has a black screen with a cursor and then after 10 seconds it boots to the log on screen. Should I delete thes? its found in System 32 drivers :/ 

Thanks so much!

Quick question: What OS are you running? A quick cursory google search for avipbb.sys (which might have been a better starting point) brought me to this, where a user was having issues with Avira running on Windows XP, which may be out of support at this point (don't quote me on this)

It's a false positive. You'll always get false positives when one anti-virus scans another. That's why it's generally frowned upon to use more than one at a time, as they will almost always conflict somewhere.
