Trystian Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 (edited) Right after my Avast Virus scanner updated to the 0642-0 database (10/17/06), it started telling me that every one of my compiled Autoit scripts were Trojans (Win:Autoit [Trj]). Has anyone else seen this issue with Avast, or any other virus scanner lately? I'm sending a report to Avast right now.

Trystian Posted October 18, 2006 Author Share Posted October 18, 2006 (edited) I've been running Avast for about 2 months now, and this is the first time that it's popped up stating that all my compiled scripts are infected, including the "AutoIT3Wrapper.exe". I sent the false positive report to Avast (email: virus@avast.com).I've had this issue with other Virus scanners that I've used in the past with regards to AutoIT compiled scripts. There will always be someone out there that screws things up for the rest of us by producing evil things with good tools. Virus producers should be hung by their N*+$.Thanks th.meger for the link.Here a thread on Avast Forums about this AutoIT issue:http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=24309.0 Edited October 18, 2006 by TrystianSky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
