Pol, I am getting this Virus detection when running the 1.19 Patch .exe. I have never had this happen before and I have used Vipre protection for years and it has been running for all previous patches. Can you run a Virus check on your end for the 1.19 Patch file/folder please.
Thanks in advance.

Just a heads up Blade..Kaspersky for me gave a clean 1.19 patch,no issues at all. Im assuming its a false positive pal.

Thanks Adger, I am assuming the same thing. I would just like Pol to check to make sure nothing sneaked in in transition.

Also checks clean here on my system with latest ESET NOD32. Don't forget we have several AV programs checking all the time so it would have already been a problem before you got it.
Checked with two other trojan and virus checkers all fine. It helps if people can please report it as a false positive on the AV maker's website.

Anyway I found this https://homesupport.vipre.com/suppo...w-to-resolve-a-vipre-home-false-positive
Reported it as false positive and sent the url to our file.

Sent the url to our download for WOTR Update 1.19 zip to VIPRE. Their response basically NO virus using current definitions:


"Hello,

The provided sample/URL was not detected under current definitions. Please ensure you are on definitions 78906 - 7.82714 or later. If you are having difficulty determining the URL, I suggest contacting support at 877-757-4094 in order to troubleshoot the issue.

Product name: VIPRE for Home"

So much time dealing with these false positives from AV company's :/
