Bad Apple AV False-Positive
Posted by MyIS James on May 5, 2008 @ 18:54 PDT
AVG 8 has started triggering on Bad Apple due to a heuristic scan. We believe a completely unrelated/unknown individual released a virus which used a DLL compiler that is similar to the DLL compiler we used to create a particular Bad Apple file. Hopefully an AVG patch will be released relatively soon to officially correct this issue. In the mean time, the current work-around is to disable anti-virus scanning for the “Bad Apple ESIMS” directory.
We apologize for any inconvenience, and once again, we assure you that as long as you downloaded the install package from www.BadAppleESIMS.com, then the files ARE clean.
