I upgraded to AIS 6 and since the upgrade one component of an application (Powersuite which contains Speed Up My PC…) that was installed prior to the upgrade keeps getting detected as Win32PUP-gen [PUP]. The actual executable that seems to trigger the alert is sump.exe.
I believe that this is a false positive and when it occurs I submit the detection to the Virus Lab as being false. After the submission is completed, I restore the file. Avast detects it again and I have to complete the same process over and over…
You can exclude the program file in file system shield/exclusions and in setting’s/exclusions then add that executable to the behaviour shield trusted processes.
Thanks for the reply. The executable is already on the exclusion list but it’s still being detected. I think that it has something to with the new version. I never had this issue until after the upgrade…
Actually, there appears to be more than two but I won’t go there. I’m not sure that I don’t won’t the file to be scanned. I think the Behavior Shield method is the way to go if I can get it to work properly. I just completed a re-install of AIS 6 on all my Windows desktop environments. I added the necessary paths to the Behavior Shield exclusion list. We’ll see how things go from here…
