False Positive?

Viruses and worms
1

Hello:

Using Avast Home/Professional edition 4.8.1368 with the latest virus definitions.

The infection report is showing the infection “Win32:Malware-gen” on the following file:

C:\Program Files\Brady\LabelMark5\Bin\PrintEngine.PipelineTransfer.BMP71.dll

This file is part of the Brady labeling software suite/drivers.

I believe this is a false positive. How can I prevent this “false positive” from being detected and showing in the infection report?

Thanks!

Don
