Virus Alert thrown when running Avast!

Post by smaakage » Wed Aug 19, 2009 12:16 am

I'm running my application using the GDPicture component with a demo license on a machine running Avast, and now it all of a sudden throws a virus alert(img below)

It's just started now it haven't thrown this before even though ive run the application hundreds of times now while developing.

Or the details in case theres a problem:
File name:D:\OUT\GdPicture.NET.dll
Malware name: Win32:Induc
Malware type: Virus/Worm
VPS version: 090818, 18-08-2009

It also fails the scan if i try downloading you ZIP again from you software page.

Please help.

We have the problem with ActiveX edition v5.11.17 !!! Detected by Kaspersky in a compiled executable with Imaging/Viewer objects. I understand that these situations could happen, but still, we expect GdPicture taking extra measures for preventing distribution of infections to the customers. Although this particular malware was harmless to the system, it still caused panic, department-wide disinfection and a lost day. The consequences of a harmful malware would be much, much bigger.

We like your toolkit and we would not be glad if we had to switch to another vendor. Please take measures.
