False positive or Not
« on: April 25, 2018, 06:10:27 AM »
So I ran avast full scan and found 4 viruses which are all named INI:shortcut Inf, 2 on the file poketalk with lenovo and 2 on lenovo telephony which strangely is an app that is already installed when I reformatted my laptop but before that I ran a full scan on mcafee LiveSafe which didnt seem to find any virus at all. Can you guys confirm whether the detection was false positive or not?? (sorry for bad english)
