Jeremy Valentine 1326740 Posted January 3, 2017 at 10:33 PM Posted January 3, 2017 at 10:33 PM Hello - Following a recent PC Format, I was attempting to download and re-install vATIS and the install file was flagged by Norton360 for containing a Trojan. Anyone else have this issue or can shed some light on the topic? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bradley Grafelman Posted January 3, 2017 at 10:41 PM Posted January 3, 2017 at 10:41 PM Confirms Symantec is one of the 'numerous' that Justin mentioned here recently: The installer system I use (NSIS) has been known to have false positives reported from numerous anti-virus softwares. The "heuristic" is the main part to note in that screenshot. Basically, it means "This file doesn't match any known malware, but it looks like it could do something I don't like, therefore I'm blocking it" in AV-speak. Best thing would be for Symantec users to submit the installer as an example of a false positive: Please submit files that are detected as Heur.AdvML.C to Symantec Security Response so that these new risks or variants can be identified and [Mod - Happy Thoughts]igned specific names. (Source) EDIT: Strange; the VirusTotal results don't show anything for Symantec. Perhaps try forcing Norton to update now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremy Valentine 1326740 Posted January 3, 2017 at 10:51 PM Author Posted January 3, 2017 at 10:51 PM Thanks for the quick replies everyone! Where did you download it from? Downloaded from the main vATIS site, https://radarcontact.me/ Brad - I've submitted a false positive report. Definitions shouldn't be an issue as this is following a fresh format, install, and update of Norton360. I figured this was the case, but wanted to get a message out just in case something may have gone awry. Thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bradley Grafelman Posted January 3, 2017 at 10:54 PM Posted January 3, 2017 at 10:54 PM Definitions shouldn't be an issue as this is following a fresh format, install, and update of Norton360. Thought I'd throw it out there anyway, especially given how much time may have elapsed (~24 hours doesn't seem like a lot, but it can be "enough" with AV-related stuff). Definition updates at least every 24 hours seems to be typical, and it seems Symantec has released two so far today (1/3/2017). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
