False Positive 'Scheduled Daily Scan Result'
« on: June 16, 2015, 07:42:14 PM »
This morning's (Tues) Scheduled Daily Scan showed 'Threat Detected' but 'Show Result' was greyed out so I checked the scan log but there were no viruses found.

I ran the 'Daily Scan' again manually but no threats were detected and no viruses were found when I checked the scan log again.

Is there a glitch in the software?

I believe there was such a problem with the "Thread detected" button (which sometimes appeared even though it shouldn't have).
The problem should be fixed in the next version (currently in beta).
