Hi Pondus,
Very interesting read on false positives created by generic heuristic detection. So one av manipulating the detection of another.
With malsites the most important cause of false positives are benign sites that are hosted on bad hosting Autonomous Systems. This is the main class of false positive website flags.
Of course for files the misinterpretation of packer obfuscation patterns is the main cause of false positive finds.
