False postitive report, when can I get result?
« on: January 20, 2015, 12:31:02 PM »
Dear Avast,
I have submitted files to Avast lab at https://www.avast.com/contact-us.php?subject=VIRUS-FILE 2 days ago. Please tell me when can I have result?, Customers use my software product and Avast Internet Security are now have problem: Avast detects my software as virus
Thanks,
Minh Ngo

A link to your software might be handy....

Generally speaking, they DON'T answer those unless they need more information.

It is not a smart idea to post your email on a public webboard unless you like to receive spam.
