Gamethief trojan?

Hey folks, my baidu antivirus detected a trojan attempting to infect my computer a while ago after I downloaded neverwinter from steam. The launcher crashed a couple of times during the loading files period after I enter my username, telling me something about cryptic error everytime it crashed. I decided to turn off and on my computer and then, after a long time of waiting, it finally completed loading all the files. As soon as it reached 100% baidu sent me a notification telling me that it had stoped the trojan. This obviously has me worried, since this had never happened before and I consider steam and neverwinter to be rather trustworthy. Any idea why this happened? Any help would be much apreciated

    It is really hard to say why this would happen and it is the first I have heard of such. Either it us a false positive or being caused by something else entirely.
