False Positive with Avira

Thanks for a superb tool-makes listening a pleasure!
After a recent scan with Avira AntiVirus,an FP resulted-Trojan TR/Vapsup.uct.
Maybe Avira could be contacted as it insists in quarantining it etc.
Seems like Kaspersky did declare it to be an FP.

Regards Mike

i'm sure it's false positive.

Reinstalled version 4.03 and updated Avira database-no more problems.
Could be an FP which was corrected.

No I rebuilt the thing and apparently the different date and time etc. of the new build was enough to get rid of the warning. (It was reported in the "bugs" section also).

Anyway, thanks for reporting it!

Well, you made me curious and after scanning with the latest version of Kaspersky 7.0 (http://www.trustdownload.com/Antivirus- ... y-7.0.html) , it results it is an FP. Thank you.

I *think* the post by 'blast' is spam... But I'm not sure (blast, please respond if I'm wrong!). I found a notice on a spam/malware reporting site that 'trustdownload.com' is known to spam forums, and 'trustdownload.com' is of course not the home page of Kaspersky. Except for that, how could a virus scanner determine that something is a false positive :shock:
