Anything flagged as a "GEN" stands for generic, and 99% of the time it is a false positive. I havent changed those two files in almost 6 months and all the AV's had updated their virus defs to not flagged them. Looks like you just need to submit the files to the AV you used and they will remove the false positive

hi Shane

there is other anti malware software has flagged your software

Any time I update any VB6 program bit defender will auto flag it as a GEN, and there is about 7 or 8 other antivirues that get their virus defs from bit defender, so they all falg it as well and it is always a "GEN" false positive. Its freaking pain lol

Shane you have a lot of work to do then ! lol

Damn! And look how all of them have it flagged as a "GEN"

Well only thing to do is to start sending the file to each of them so they will remove the false positive.

That exe is made with autoit. Those AV's must not like autoit very much lol

tweaking_ofp_x64.exe is made with autoit because my programs are made in VB6 and it can only compile to 32 bit. In order to open the file properties of 64 bit files I needed a 64 bit exe, so i made it in autoit since it can compile to a 64bit exe.

You know what is odd, herd proect says Microsoft flags the file, yet I have Microsoft installed and it doesnt flag it at all, and virus total doesnt show any of the other antiviruses flagging it

The heard protect scan was from 12/25/2014, I even downloaded herdprotect to have it try to do a new scan and it simply just shows the old scan from two months ago. How do you get them to rerun the scan?
