False positive trojan alarm

Aug 012008

If you download WinAPE, the CPC / CPC Plus emulator by Richard Wilson, and check it with one of the following antivirus solutions, you will notice that it detects the “Update.exe” file as malware. The Avira AntiVir antivirus had the same problem, but I send the updater to their support team, they analyzed it and removed it from their signatures. They confirmed that the “Update.exe” is not a trojan horse!

The following antivirus solutions will detect the “Update.exe” as malware:

ArcaVir
Avast
AVG Antivirus
CPsecure
F-Secure Antivirus
Ikarus
Kaspersky Antivirus
VBA32
