False Virus Report generated from Clickteam install

Greetings. In a casual scan of my PC this morning, using McAfee online scanner, a false report of Unone Trojan file was detected in the file:

tg-gr3[1].0-final.exe

This is a false alert. A Mcafee update follows:

-- Update Mar 19th, 12:03pm PST --
"The 4339 dat files are incorrectly identifying files from Clickteam as the Unone trojan."


For those of you using mods, same was found as a trojan also in:
DA49.exe
DA49patch_v3.exe

Which also use the clickteam installer.

A search of my PC resulted in no detection of the trojan package normally associated with Unone.

Just wanting to keep people informed, as I had not seen a post on this.

Re: False Virus Report generated from Clickteam install

i know what the problem is: McCafee .... both mcafee and norton, i find to hog system resources, and the amount that the programs use in your system, is what u save when u rid the viruses in the first place, i reccoment getting a new virus scanner (i use avg + adAware) both are free but flawless

Most people assume their AV software is adequate and great until the point when it's not. Being in the technology security industry, we set up machines with a variety of exploits and viruses and test all the AV packages against them. The results would suprise you, but I can assure you that AVG is nowhere even NEAR flawless. But it's better than McAfee.
