False Positive Detection.
« on: January 30, 2006, 03:29:35 PM »
I have to report a false positive detection.

Avast 4.6 sees, after the latest Program and VPS update,  X-RayPc Spyware Analyzer ( http://www.x-raypc.com/ ) as a Virus/Worm :-\

Bestandsnaam: C:\Documents and Settings\ ... \Mijn documenten\Backup\Veiligheid\Tools\x-raypc.exe
Malware-naam: Win32:Trojan-gen. {Other}
Malware-type: Virus/Worm
VPS versie: 0605-0, 29-01-2006

I hope you will fix it soon :)

Greetz, Red.

Please, pack the file (x-raypc.exe) with ZIP or RAR, protect it with a password and send it to virus@avast.com (using something like "False positive" as e-mail subject).
Thanks.
