Vistumbler version 10

Post by throkr »

Hello,

I'm having a problem migrating from version 9.8 to version 10 (on Win 7 Pro x64) :

- I tried with the auto-update (when opening Vistumbler and accepting to download directly the new version)
- I tried by downloading the compressed file from the home page

Every time the download has been blocked by my Anti-Virus (Kaspersky 2011 11.0.1.400) telling that the *.exe file is corrupted by a trojan ... :(
By the way, is version 10 still a Beta version ?

Just for the info : version 9.8 I'm currently using works perfectly !

Thanks for your help and suggestions.

I would say report it as a false positive to kaspersky. I can see from this online scan what you are talking about ( http://www.virustotal.com/analisis/24f0 ... 1279540841 ). 2/40 antiviruses reported Vistumbler.exe as a virus (Kaspersky and F-Secure).

This seems to happen every time I release a new version an usually works itself out within a few weeks. I'm sure you could always add an exception in you antivirus software.

Vistumbler v10 is no longer in beta

Thanks a lot for this quick reply.

I'll send a report (false positive) to Kaspersky and will wait a bit to upgrade as you mention that it should work itself out within a few weeks. This time the two products had a new version practically at the same time : a few days ago the Anti-Virus and now your product, so .....

I also sent an email to someone at kaspersky I had contacted once before. Not sure it will help, but maybe it will speed this up some.

Yesterday, I received feedback from the Kasperky's specialists within 1 hour and they confirmed a false detection. The issue was fixed during the next update.

I'm currently enjoying version 10 without any problem ... :D

I'm not sure what you mean, I would contact kaspersky if you are having issues with their license

What do you do if your kaspersky virus protection has been corrupted? Ok, my home computer uses the Kaspersky Virus Protection. And for some reason a message pops up saying that it is corrupted. It won't allow it to update and it froze while I was trying to update it at 87%. I need help very much to fix this problem.

I would uninstall Kaspersky from control panel (programs and features) then re-install the latest version.

If it won't allow you to uninstall (due to corruption) try using the free version of revo uninstaller ( http://www.revouninstaller.com/revo_uni ... nload.html ) to forcibly remove the program
