iiNetUsage Gadget flagged as Malware

Viruses and worms

Hi,

I’m the author of the Windows Sidebar gadget, iiNetUsage. This gadget displays the internet quota usage for people with ADSL with iiNet (http://www.iinet.net.au).

I’ve had a few users complain that over the last few days Avast now picks up my gadget as malware.

How do I go about getting this resolved?

The gadget can be found at http://emerson.kirk-burnnand.com/iiNetUsage.zip

Thanks,
Emerson

Send the sample to virus@avast.com zipped and password protected with the password in email body, a link to this topic might help and false positive in the subject.

Update:

I have just downloaded the zip file and I’m not getting an alert on the file in the zip. I’m using avast VPS 080627-0 (latest version). So I would suggest the users ensure they have a) the latest version of your tool and b) the latest avast VPS version.
