Hello,
A recent scan by Avast shows our popular secure anonymous web surfing product “Hide My IP” listed as Win32:Malware-gen. A scan with Virustotal.com with 50+ virus scanners shows that Avast is the only anti-virus with this false positive listing, all the other virus scanners show the executable as Clean status.
Please investigate and inform us how to submit a false positive report for Hide My IP.
Thank you,
