is this false alert
« on: March 23, 2010, 10:26:47 AM »
We are using Avast U3

Lately we started to receive alerts  "Malware found on host c:\windows\system32\logondll"

This file is part of Deep Freeze software (http://www.faronics.com/en/Default.aspx) that we are using on our computers

No other Antivirus & malwarebytes recognize the file as a virus/malware

Is this false alert ?

Thanks in advance
Yuval

Hello,
send us (virus@avast.com) the file to analyze. Put "False positive" to subject.
