IDP.Generic

While downloading Autodesk Maya 2017, a warning popped up showing IDP.Generic inside of the folder. Could this be a false positive or is it an infection?

Hello,
can you post the link which are you downloading, please?

Some AV alert for adware here.

Today both my laptop and desktop started displaying a Behavior shield Message.
File c:\Windows\SysWOW64\cmd.exe
Infection: IDP.Generic

I click the Fix automatically option but the messages persists.
I ran a boot time scan on my laptop and no virus found. And the message persists.

Is this a false positive? Both machines pop up the error about once ± an hour.

The laptop runs Win10 Home
Desktop runs Win10 Pro

Thanks,
David

I get this aswell as soon as i updated to Windows 10 build 1703. Seems like Windows 10 does something in the background that Avast haven’t added an exception to yet.

Btw do you have the latest update to 1703 from 08/08/2017?
