Installer detected as Fraudtool by virus scanner

wally68 · 26th February 2008, 08:43

Hallo, i have a problem with some virus scanners.

I am using NSIS 2.23 + inetc.dll (2007-08-11) to create an auto-setup installer, that installs other NSIS installer packages over an internet/intranet connection.

Since yesterday (2008-02-25) the G-DATA and Kaspersky scanners detect my auto-installer as a "not-a-virus:FraudTool.Win32.CCleaner.a".

When I remove the inetc-plugin from my installer, nothing is detected.

Any ideas?

Just another false positive, contact Kaspersky.

Because NSIS is great

Let's find a good side of false positive - this means that NSIS plug-ins or code fragments were used in virus programs. NSIS code high-quality was proved this way

I have send an email to Kaspersky, but no answer until now.
