Sophos AV detecting install as a virus

avatar

Hi
Starting today Sophos antivirus has been removing the install of RDM 6.5 every time I install it. It is detecting it as a Mal/MsilDyn-K virus.

Please could you have a word with Sophos as I can really work without it :(

Hi,
I have received an answer from them:


The virus lab review your request and found it to be a false detection. An update has been issued and will be going out within the next couple hours. Once clients get the update detection on this will be no more.

Hi!

FYI: Symantec also detects the installer as a virus!

Hello Marco,

By the installer, is it the .exe or the .msi?

I would like to submit a false-positive report to Symantec, however, I would need more information from your end.
