I have sent it in already... though in my experience they usually don't do much without contact from someone involved in the production or compilation of the software. :/
AVG Research Lab has analyzed the file(s) you have sent from your AVG Virus Vault. Below you can find the results for each file. The final verdict on the file is either a correct detection or a false positive detection.
Further information about the verdicts are available at our website:
http://www.avg.com/faq-1184 "c:\Users\Chris Howie\Desktop\bfgminer-2.5.1-win32\pdcurses.dll" - detection is correct
Yeah, that's more or less what I expected.
Actually, on further thought, it is
possible that file could be infected (though very unlikely). It is an exception to my general "compile everything" policy - I just used their official DLL binary.
Anyhow, here's what I sent to AVG:
One of my users is reporting that AVG insists my software is a virus, even after sending to you for review. Please correct your procedures to actually do proper checking and not flag innocent software.
The flagged file is pdcurses.dll, which I am using the official Windows binary distributed at:
http://voxel.dl.sourceforge.net/project/pdcurses/pdcurses/3.4/pdc34dllw.zipIf this official binary is indeed infected, please provide evidence so that it is removed from SourceForge (a highly respected software website).
In the meantime, want to see if it detects one I compile myself?
