After this morning’s update of Avast Pro and Free edition, my Call of Duty Mint Trainer is detected as a Trojan? (Win32:OnLineGames-EFA [trj])
I know this is not true, I have used this trainer for more than 4 years with no problem! I think it falls within the detection rules of Avast, this trainer changes the way the Game will run - to allow you to cheat off course.
Is there anyone out there who knows how I can launch this trainer without my (use to be good friend) Avast >:(, or do I have to change my Virus protection program, after paying for 2 years subscription?
To know if a file is a false positive, please submit it to VirusTotal and let us know the result. If it is indeed a false positive, send it in a password protected zip to virus@avast.com. VirusTotal has a file size limit of 10Mb. Please, mention in the body of the message why you think it is a false positive and the password used. Thanks.
As a workaround, you can add these files to the Standard Shield provider (on-access scanning) exclusion list.
Left click the ‘a’ blue icon, click on the provider icon at left and then Customize. Go to Advanced tab and click on Add button…
You can use wildcards like * and ?. But be careful, you should ‘exclude’ that many files that let your system in danger.
Don’t exaggerate… it’s just a false positive. They usually correct them very quickly.
Ok mate, the Adding of this exe file to Avast Standard Shield did not work. I have submitted the file to Virustool and below is the screen shots of the results.
Looks like it has been submitted before?
Have submitted this to avast and this file does not belong to Call of Duty 2, it’s a trainer for this game which allows you to cheat e.g. Godmode, Allammo, Infinite health or clipping.
So it’s a trainer that somebody somewhere developed to allow us cheaters to cheat easily
It’s mainly for my kids, they can’t play without these cheats?
