How to whitelist a file
« on: July 28, 2017, 04:52:48 PM »
Hi've followed steps from
https://www.avast.com/faq.php?article=AVKB160   or   https://www.avast.com/faq.php?article=AVKB229

I've created a zip file protected with password (mymail@mydomain.com.zip),then uploaded to   ftp.avast.com  folder /incoming
then I've sent a mail to  submit@virus.avast.com   with subject  " Files to whitelist mymail@mydomain.com.zip"
incuded in body archive password

I've done this 4 days ago with no fix or response.Is that method still active or is another new
thanks

Is your file currently being detected by Avast?

Do you know which mechanism is causing it or even better a screenshot?

Hi
Everything is build with NSIS is detected as Evo-gen or FileRepMalware
I have this problem for 3 year,sent lots of files but no general fix,just temporary   :(
I've tried to send files using a ticket but I got an email that I have no serial because I use free version
