hei every one

 1 hour ago  i just install hitmanpro in my  pc
when i run it  avast behavior shield   detect HitmanPro.exe   as idp.alexa.51
 i google it and found info about it in avg website!!  in avast  froum i found nothing! so i realised this behavior shield technology is from avg right??

i just removed my entire  virus chest also hitman pro and again reinstall it  when i did it this time avast didnt detect it as idp.alexa.51 and didnt warn me !! wtf why once warn me and detect that file as idp.alexa.51 but when i removed it and again install  it this time detect it as safe? i think its bug or smth like that

Although Hitman Pro might not be a full blown av as avast is, conflicts can be expected.

As for the detection,
what exact version of avast ?
what vps version ?

why u count hitman pro as av? not Anti Malware  like Malwarebytes
avast premier
program version:17.2.2288
vdv:170301-5

It would be a real bad thing if a nowadays security only would detect viruses.
That is like trying to name all the letters in the alphabet while you only know the A

As of 19 March - this IDP.Alexa.51 has appeared on my computer as well.
This time it's pointing a finger at a program, that has been on my PC for a year.
'TinySpell' was downloaded from a very good website and used without Avast saying anything.
But since the last definitions update, it says I have this malware and puts it into the 'Virus Chest'.
Have uninstalled the program and have replaced it with an older zipped version - and avast has not screamed once (even scanned it).
Now I've got a file in virus chest, which I cannot delete - any help, please.
