fanaleds v6b picked up as malware in avast

Post by pete_agreatguy »

My malwarebytes premium is not picking up this exe as a threat but my avast free is:

Is it safe to run this?

Just to be clear: Avast is marking it as a PUP (Potentially Unwanted Program), not as malware.

For some reason a bunch of AV's started to mark Fanaleds as a threat. Avast removed the malware warning, but they still decide to mark it as a PUP. Most other AV's are started to mark it simply safe. Nothing else we can do about it.

Thank. It installed fine (after disabling my AVAST and Malwarebytes Premium).

The latter software was fine with it, it was just the anti-virus. I had to allow for an exemption for it to run but it does without issues :)

Thank you.
