• AVAST WIN32 MALWARE GEN FALSE POSITIVE UPDATE

I just ran SuperAntiSpyware and it came up clean, I also ran Malwarebytes Anti Malware and that came up clean too. I submitted the two that were in the virus chest to avast as potential false positives, how do I submit the one it said was a system file? I was afraid to move it to the chest in case it would mess up my computer and make me not able to use it. Yes I would like a malware person to look at it just to make sure. This has Avast Internet Security Program Version 2014. I'm on a Hewlett-Packard p7-1235 with Windows 7 Home Premium Service Pack 1.

AVAST WIN32 MALWARE GEN FALSE POSITIVE UPDATE

Is anyone aware of a problem with the update or something? Or could these be legit files that somehow became infected? When I google them they look like audio files/drivers of some kind. I had last run one on 10/12 and had no problems.

I run boot scans about once a week so I find it hard to believe this is real malware. Looking at these files it appears they were created in 2012 back around the time I bought the computer, so I'm leaning towards this being a false positive because of how old these items appear, but I'm hoping someone here can tell me for certain.Ĭ:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository\stwrt64.inf_amd64_neutral_b27a28765e622f18\stacsv64.exeĪccording to Avast's virus chest the last time the top two were changed was in April of 2012. I told two to move to the chest, the 3rd it said it was a windows system file and asked me again so I told it to ignore just to be on the safe side. It came up detecting three things it claims are infected with "Win32:Malware-Gen".

I have Avast Internet Security and I ran a boot scan last night after the new update. Thus far no malware person has looked at this that I'm aware of.
