Title: How to ignore avast false-positive without turning it off?
Post by: VitalVigor1 on December 02, 2008, 06:01:15 AM: I am trying to download a program but it won't let me and bam "A virus was found!", but I am downloading from a private torrent site, so I know for sure it's not a virus or a harmful program. So please DON'T argue with me about that. It identifies the keygen/crack as a Trojan. My arse...

Also if I press "No Action" it- Note: if you press the "No action" button, the malware will NOT be activated. So yeah, it didn't let me download.

Thanks for directly answering my question and not going off topic.

It is not a site supporting unethical activity (in which you seem to regularly seek support in this forum). I suspect that you will get precious little help here with this ... your rear end notwithstanding.

you'd better buy the serial number instead, safer and no malware or virus.
