ACDSee Pro 6 (64-bit) False positive?
« on: May 07, 2013, 06:05:00 PM »
Today, launching my ACDSee Pro 6 image viewer, Avast! Free moved the file "ACDSeePro6.exe" to quarantine and marked it as "MSIL:Crypt-NB [Trj]"
Anyone else having this?
This got to be a false positive?

Same thing this morning on three files in Avanquest's PowerDesk v9.0, which has been installed on this machine for a long time. Avast virus definitions file version 130507-0.

Just want to mention that I started another thread saying that I am having the exact same problem today with another program - Serif Page Plus 5. I hope they fix what seems to be an Avast problem. I am unable to use the software, and from what I have read, it does no good to reinstall the program with the problem because Avast will just flag it again.

avast! just identified a 3rd party component (ChilkatDotNet4.dll) that a recently installed piece of software uses  (that was working fine yesterday) as being a MSIL:Crypt-NB[Trj] Developer of software is contacting Chilkat to be sure but thinks that this is a false positive.

If it's a false positive you can do this:

- Avast -> File System Shield -> Stop
- Reinstall ACDSee
- Avast -> File System Shield -> Settings -> Exclusions
- Add "*\ACDSeePro6.*"
- Press OK to confirm
- Avast -> File System Shield -> Start

That's it.
