I hope Avira can finally figure it out once for all. ]]> RE: [Issue - 8.0 Beta 7] Installation triggers an Avira antivirus warning https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/issue-80-beta-7-installation-triggers-an-avira-antivirus-warning/?ID=4bc99152-efa1-4473-b42d-cea8a253925a#11 Mon, 20 Jun 2016 12:02:15 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/issue-80-beta-7-installation-triggers-an-avira-antivirus-warning/?ID=4bc99152-efa1-4473-b42d-cea8a253925a#11 DisplayFusion Seems Avira fixed the false positive for the Beta 7 file finally in VDF 8.12.98.120.

But now updating to Beta 8 the new file gets flagged again. I can't send another report right now but I'll try and send it again later, hopefully I remember to send it :D ]]> RE: [Issue - 8.0 Beta 7] Installation triggers an Avira antivirus warning https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/issue-80-beta-7-installation-triggers-an-avira-antivirus-warning/?ID=4bc99152-efa1-4473-b42d-cea8a253925a#10 Wed, 08 Jun 2016 19:30:49 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/issue-80-beta-7-installation-triggers-an-avira-antivirus-warning/?ID=4bc99152-efa1-4473-b42d-cea8a253925a#10 DisplayFusion Excellent, I hope they fix it quickly. :( ]]> RE: [Issue - 8.0 Beta 7] Installation triggers an Avira antivirus warning https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/issue-80-beta-7-installation-triggers-an-avira-antivirus-warning/?ID=4bc99152-efa1-4473-b42d-cea8a253925a#9 Wed, 08 Jun 2016 14:07:14 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/issue-80-beta-7-installation-triggers-an-avira-antivirus-warning/?ID=4bc99152-efa1-4473-b42d-cea8a253925a#9 DisplayFusion

I'm not sure how fast they'll fix it, but I'm really hoping they'll release an update today.


I made another submission myself and this time, instead of mentioning a specific VDF version, they updated it to say:

Code

Select All

Detection will be removed from our virus definition file (VDF) with one of the next updates.


I'll keep an eye on future updates myself and report back, they are up to 8.12.98.110 for now and there's no change. ]]> RE: [Issue - 8.0 Beta 7] Installation triggers an Avira antivirus warning https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/issue-80-beta-7-installation-triggers-an-avira-antivirus-warning/?ID=4bc99152-efa1-4473-b42d-cea8a253925a#8 Wed, 08 Jun 2016 13:41:58 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/issue-80-beta-7-installation-triggers-an-avira-antivirus-warning/?ID=4bc99152-efa1-4473-b42d-cea8a253925a#8 DisplayFusion I'm not sure how fast they'll fix it, but I'm really hoping they'll release an update today. ]]> RE: [Issue - 8.0 Beta 7] Installation triggers an Avira antivirus warning https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/issue-80-beta-7-installation-triggers-an-avira-antivirus-warning/?ID=4bc99152-efa1-4473-b42d-cea8a253925a#7 Tue, 07 Jun 2016 18:52:32 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/issue-80-beta-7-installation-triggers-an-avira-antivirus-warning/?ID=4bc99152-efa1-4473-b42d-cea8a253925a#7 DisplayFusion Unfortunately it seems it is not fixed yet.

Code
Copy
Select All

The file 'AppHookWIN5064.dll' has been determined to be 'FALSE POSITIVE'. In particular this means that this file is not malicious but a false alarm. Detection is removed from our virus definition file (VDF) with the version: 8.12.98.22.


I just checked Avira info and it has already updated to that version earlier. I'm going to re-install Beta 7 in a few minutes, I'll let you know how it goes :) ]]> RE: [Issue - 8.0 Beta 7] Installation triggers an Avira antivirus warning https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/issue-80-beta-7-installation-triggers-an-avira-antivirus-warning/?ID=4bc99152-efa1-4473-b42d-cea8a253925a#5 Tue, 07 Jun 2016 14:52:18 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/issue-80-beta-7-installation-triggers-an-avira-antivirus-warning/?ID=4bc99152-efa1-4473-b42d-cea8a253925a#5 DisplayFusion Avira is aware of the issue, hopefully they'll fix it soon.
