Winaue and Kaspersky 7.0.125

cybermat · 14 January 2008, 20:26

Hi all,

Kaspersky is detecting a KEYLOGGER inside Winuae.exe ...it's not a real virus but a "Suspicious action dected". I'm adding this .exe in SAFE ZONE of Kaspersky, i think that is a false positive.

Let me know. I'm using winuae 1.4.5 downloaded from a safe place.

Perhaps winpcap uaenet.device support causes this.

winpcap-like network access is apparently common in some type of viruses/keyloggers/etc..

So i can leave winuae.exe in the safe area?

Send KASPERSKY to trash and install AVAST .

Yes brilliant idea, ditch something that actually detects virus like activity that is obviously doing it's job as it should and replace it with a free resource hog that randomly scans files every five minutes on a whim

Kaspersky 7.0.1.321 was released a few days ago, probably worth updating.

kaspersky detect anything that uses keyboard input as a keylogger ..

False positives... this can happen, no big deal.
One of the finest Antivirus Products is made by http://www.avira.com/ - there is a free one, too.

I think that all of you should trash your running AV and buy kaspersky...

If you want i can host a file with BAGLE virus...not detected by AVIRA, NOD32, ESCAN etc etc but detected from KAsperky.

I lost 100 giga of data for this inconvenient. So i decided to use Kaspersky, that has some false positives...but better than real VIRUSES :|

Yep i agree better to have some false reports you can sort out manually than to have a program which doesn't do anything. I personally us Kaspersky to and its really good.

Yes kaspersky is an excellent product, nothing to compare with avast, which is free and less powerfull (effective...).

Fact : no Antivirus Software detects all viruses
Fact : even my favorite (avira) gives false positives
Fact : the only way to protect your data is regular Backups

100 GIGA was the reached size after the usual regular backup
