Title: Prevx reports AhAscr.dll as high risk cloaked malware
Post by: sded on January 05, 2011, 04:46:53 PM
In Avast5 folder for .864.  I reported it to Prevx as an FP, but don't know which of their heuristic factors called it out.

I had a lot of FP's using PrevX, I liked PrevX but got fed up after a while and switched to Avast after the years license ran out
Every time Perfect Disk issued an update PrevX would flag it.
I would report it as an FP and 1/2 days later all would be well, until next time
It was just the locally generated code (new) compared with what was held on the PrevX server (old)
