AVG antivirus - finding PolyCrypt virus in Inventor files
AVG antivirus - finding PolyCrypt virus in Inventor files
My AVG antivirus has found a number of files in the Autodesk directory for Inventor 11. I have no reason to believe that the infection is true as our server is secure and emails are scanned upon receceival. The antivirus definition update occurred this morning and I believe there may be some issue with definitions false sensing.
Has anybody else experienced the problem?
Guys, there is no virus there... AVG is known for false reporting.

Yep, found the same thing after an update today. Finds the virus in the exe
and dll files of Add-in manager, Project manager and Design Assistant.

Inventor 11. I have no reason to believe that the infection is true as our

I had this same problem after an update late last week. The first scan found a lot of "infections" in my cygwin installation which I hardly ever even access. Has anyone informed AVG of this error? I've disabled mine for now, after restoring the Inventor files from vault that it found.

Just found this problem also. Now I can't access Design Assistant. I told AVG to ignore but it may have done something to the file anyway. I'll reboot and see what happens.
Most likely you will have to restore the files first
from the Virus Vault AND disable the resident shield
(otherwise it will keep finding it and asking you
to ignore it). I also disabled my scheduled tests
for now, otherwise I think it will keep finding them
until they fix it. They have another problem in that
my scan times for complete tests have gone from
about 7 hours to almost 18 hours for the same amount
of objects, and that is cutting into my workday!
BTW, after AVG updated itself at 10:30 this morning,
I ran a manual check on the Inventor Bin directory
and it found no threats, so it looks like they fixed
it.
We have analyzed the file you have sent to us and it is false detection. This issue will be fixed in next update, which will be released as soon as possible.
If there are any other suspicious files, please feel free to contact us again.
BTW, this is a reply to a very old (2007) thread. Did you read all
responses??
