Were you infected before you installed it?

Which site are you downloading it from, "highly dangerous", and "very dangerous" don't sound like Kaspersky messages to me, but I could be wrong.

that's from an old xp installation on another hard drive in my computer.

Don't worry. Kaspersky is checking vulnerabilities with your applications against an external database.
Unfortunately it seems to check EVERY reference to an out of date application within your operating system.

My last scan revealed 472 "vulnerabilities" on a previously clean system. 470 of these were due to Apple Quick Time Player being out of date with a security fix. One update cleared the lot.

The easiest way to sort the problems is to look at the description (object) of the threat and you will see the repeats.

Right click on any one of them then select Go to Decription.

The solution or update will be found at the bottom as a link.

When you have updated what you want, then rescan to clean the list up.

One reference that you have posted appears to be pointing to Adobe Flash Player and if so click on THIS link to check and update if necessary.

The other looks like Adobe Acrobat - Open Acrobat - Click on Help - then Check for Updates. (or do it via Kaspersky)

By the way you can rest relatively easily - Kaspersky is a fine piece of protection. It may seem to be over zealous but it is thorough.
