An Avast scan gave the following as a virus: c:\windows\system32\ActiveScan\imscan.dll Win32:Kuang2.
A check on the file and the ActiveScan folder showed that they are connected with Panda; I may have done an online virus check with Panda quite some time ago. A search on this forum suggested that imscan.dll is a legitimate Panda file and that the warning is a false positive. Is this correct?
However, one thing puzzles me. The posts mentioned above are all a few years old. If imscan.dll is indeed a known false positive why is Avast still marking it as a virus?
Thanks for the reply. So, a false positive it is. However, the link is now over 5 years old, so the question still remains why such an apparently well known false positive still misleads Avast.
Panda and avast doesn’t play well together because of Panda’s bad encryption on signatures, that is also what plays here. That is why we have these ongoing things and issues with panda scanners and -dll. It is Panda that should clean up his act, not avast,
