I am having the same issue of Exploit PDF, but cannot correct it as it says it is inaccessible. What is up with that?

I also downloaded Timeline Remove app, and since I did I'm getting this threat popping up. Some feedback by AVG would help, but I see nobody's had any reply yet.

I'm getting a notification that Resident Shield is finding a threat, Exploit.pdf, but when I try to do anything with it, it says it cannot locate it. Any suggestions on what to do, or what this is?
