First of all, hello to everyone, I am new to the forums!
I’d like to report a false positive (is it done on the forums? Please correct me if I’m wrong). Aequitas which is an anticheat tool used in a reasonably large league (http://www.esl.eu/) is detected as a Win32:Trojan-gen {Other}
The tool is available for download here : hXXp://www.esl.eu/eu/download/590704/
At first I thought mine was infected but when trying to download it, avast will prevented me from finishing the download and other people are affected by it.
According to virus total, other AVs are affected by this:
Well with multiple detections it is more likely to be infected, however you don’t say what they found (important).
GData uses two scanning engines and one of those is avast, so would also report win32:Trojan-gen, the -gen indicates a generic signature, which tries to detect multiple variants of the same malware type and is more prone to false positive detection.
If the others have suspicious or gen in their malware name then they could be using heuristic or generic signatures with the same possibility of FP, but that is speculation as you didn’t say.
