You made the right category choice, Instant Buzz is actually Adware. It is a pain to delete, you need to run a registry cleaner after you uninstall it - and/or go into the Registry and delete the Instant Buzz folder (being very careful that you delete the correct folder, you should make a backup before modifying the Registry).
The message for InstantBuzz (IB) is a false positive. The reason is because IB is actually Adware which would only be bad if you didn't want to install it or didn't know it was installing on your system. The way that it replicates itself to each user, is exactly how trojans and worms behave. These are the 2 reasons why you are seeing this virus message.
I guess you have to determine for yourself whether the risk is worth it. Some people do have problems with it - not a virus per se, but just that it is 'messing with' their system (memory, etc).
You may need to manually remove it:
MANUALLY REMOVE FROM REGISTRY
* Browser Start Menu
* Run
* (type) regedit
* go to "HKEY LOCAL MACHINE" and/or "HKEY_CURRENT_USER" >> "Software"
* right click on Instant Buzz folder and Delete
BE CAREFUL you are on the Instant Buzz folder and not something else - not responsible if you delete something else that will no longer work.
If you still have problems please contact Instant Buzz:
