Probably this was patched for acrobat-reader.exe and so detection is no longer actual.

No it malicious because it blocked by 36 AV.I think avast! team should check this again.1 av can give fp but not 35 others :slight_smile:

Kaspersky not-a-virus:HEUR:AdWare.Win32.Colooader.heur

Antiy-AVL GrayWare[AdWare:not-a-virus,HEUR]/Win32.Colooader

So a low priority item

But why avast! missed a low priority item?

6

They consentrate on detecting malicious malware

But a adware can messup computer performance and hijack browser etc.
Is Kaspersky not consentrate on detecting malicious malwares?But it took same step on adwares also :slight_smile:

Hi,

Avast! members can only do so much in 1 day. One day they might have 200,000 viruses (Actual). The next they might have 10 (Actual viruses).

One would allow to cleanup issues like this, the other will not. It’s all, what is and isn’t priority. Something like a modern version of CIH is obviously more important then, an-easily-removable piece of adware.

Edit: I’m not saying it isn’t “important”. I’m saying in contrast to the potential workload, it is less important then other potential issues that may (or may not) arise.
