Will avast implement Microsoft Antivirus API

[Lisandro]

Igor, this new features include a mechanism of detection of trojans?
Why are there so many false positives in 0424-0 ?  

Technical, as I explained earlier, yesterday we have added another huge bunch of Trojan-gen detection. Acutally, the number of false alarms was not so high - most of the files sent were real Trojans or some shadow programs (adware, game keyloggers etc). Not big trouble - and we will release the updates with those few removed soon!

I know Pavel... I recognize your efforts. But it's terrible to found your computer after a scheduled scanning with a lot of files in the Chest. For me, eight scripts were moved to Chest and a lot of backup programs (the setup files)... It's annoying.
After almost one day, the VPS is still 424-0  :'(

This generic detection for trojans shows big potential

For what RejZor?  :'( I hope it won't rise up the number of false alarms...
I'm becoming cetic with Heuristics

I'll always say,better one false positive than real parasite

This is not true - the updated version has been released nearly two hours ago (and was online during your post already  )!

Hope it will solve your problems!

How is it possible that my PUSH system didn't update them?
I tried to update manually and they were updated to 424-1

[Lisandro]

This is not true

Am I crazy?

Pavel, I have the Beta version 4.1.404 and not the 4.1.396...
Maybe that's the reason, at least, last week Vlk have to 'change' something to allow beta testers to update...  :'(

[Lisandro]

Crazy?!
I downloaded the full vpsupd.exe file and what I get?!
What's going on with the beta version?

Yeah, sorry, I did not know you have the beta installed  . According to Vlk it is really handled in some special way - so it is up to him now. The other possibility is to return back to "standard" version.
