Well, no according to the OP:
So, I was providing the “unless…” for:
A_ general info
B_ in case roytam1 is actually saying that the original open source program is not detected by Avast, but only a personal customization is. Since roytam1 is the original developer, the customization probably turns out to be the open source to public distribution version/build/edition.
Directly contacting Avast improves the database and the engine in any case. The “unless…” is just a possible workaround, that helps to only one user/system. In case that particular system is the one and only that has this file, then the effects are equivalent.
If roytam1 wants the tool to be used/downloaded with no “panics” from Avast’s users, it is better to send the info about the FP (or an unknown unconfirmed possible malware, if that would be the case). In addition, Avast engine gets smarter.
