Because nobody answer me since Friday night.
I need quick solution, because each hour I’m loosing potential customers.
Could you help?
If yes, please tell me how.
If not, please allow me to solve my problems …
digitally signed aka whitelisted… of course will solve the problem… but you have to send the info and files to the avast team so they can whitelist it avast autosandbox should really have an option saying ‘don’t sandbox, legitimate file’ click it and bytes of info will be sent to labs to be digitally signed and whitelisted
why do you think that average user should know something about all that stuff?
Antivirus software should recognize a virus and stop executing infected file. Period.
Some “Sandbox” and stuff is just cr**.
What means - … you still use extreme caution when opening this file …
Does that mean that I need to doubleclick on program shortcut very slowly?
I’m not sure why Avast do such things but it is not OK for me.
There is a whitelist, but simply being digitally signed is no guarantee that a file will be whitelisted. The autosandbox has many checks that are carried out, initially by the file system shield (emulation, etc.) if there is doubt, it gets handed off to the autosandbox for further analysis. So there is more than one criteria being tested for before that happens, though I believe not-being digitally signed would possibly have a higher weighting.
As an avast user I’m not privy to the exact checks that are made before a file would trigger the autosandbox.
How to get whitelisted isn’t published anywhere, but it would certainly require the publisher to contact avast
As for the suggestion that the autosandbox should ignore digitally signed files; I guess you are unaware of the fact that for years digital certificates were being sold (by the agents) with little or no checking of who they were sold to. That is no basis to trust every digital signature.
Hi
I think we have problem here. I have about 20 Shareware programs today.
If I need to talk with > 40 antivirus software and send each of them new version, I’m lost.
BTW, does Avast team responed somewhere about Sandbox problem?
