Some are getting a pop-up saying that they have a rootkit (C:\WINDOWS\system32\Drivers\sfloppy.sys. rootkit:hidden file) Avast know about it,there is nothing to worry about, when asked if to delete it or ignore, click 'ignore'.

Googling it, its seems it is often false reported by other programs.
Its not even in the root, its in Windows/System
