Tippex Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 When attempting to install SciTE4AutoIt3.exe latest update (14-8-2008 for "AutoIt v3.2.12.1 and BETA v3.2.13.7") McAfee detects AutoIt3Wrapper.exe as a trojan and quarantines it. I know other AutoIT users with the same problem. I don't know how to report this back to the Scite team to that they can fix the problem or (if false positive) so that they can contact McAfee to get the problem fixed.

herewasplato Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 Hi Any news on this issue? As we can see, there is something strange with scite, as it's related to macafee and avg...Normally, I would just install AVG and get my own answer to what I'm about to ask you - but I cannot install AVG right now for reasons that I'll not bore you with. So - update you AVG to the latest AV signatures and contribute to the whole AutoIt community by answering the question that Jos posed in his post above:What happens when you use this version of AutoIt3Wrapper.exe which is compiled without UPX? http://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/scite/...oIt3Wrapper.exe JosIf you need help turning off UPX compression, do this: Start > Programs (All Programs) > AutoIt v3 > Compile Script to .exe Once that program loads, select "Options" and then - if there is a check by "Use UPX Compress .exe stub" - click once on that option to remove that check. Now close the window with the title ... "Aut2Exe v3 - AutoIt Script to EXE Converter" ... and create a new au3 file with only one character in it:; Save that file and right-click on it from within the Windows file explorer. Select "Compile Script" from the context menu. If you AVG software allows the file to stay around long enough, the file size of your new compiled uncompressed file should be about 515KB using AutoIt v3.2.12.1. If need be, force a scan with AVG and report your findings in this tread. Does AVG still consider that uncompressed file to be "bad"?

joseLB Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 (edited) So - update you AVG to the latest AV signatures and contribute to the whole AutoIt community by answering the question that Jos posed in his post above: Thanks herewasplato.With JOS update, AVG does not report virus anymore, as I told 3 posts above.My worry was, why standard scite was giving alarm on both macafee and AVG. It coud be that some "hacker" could have changed the download scite file in main page? Anyway, it's working ok with JOS link.Jose Edited September 24, 2008 by joseLB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
