Malware hit on Avast

[Trooper_Thorn]

I down loaded the update as usual this time it was blocked by Avast giving me a malware issue block I do not generally have any problems I just click download anyway and it goes right in this time there is a specific malware hit in the download. FileRepmalware [MISC] is what it's saying that is the malware.

Rep = Reputation maybe?

 

It's only Avast / AVG that says that, in VirusTotal website

 

The SHA-256 matches what Aslain posted

 

Conclusion: False positive.

 

If Avast has a place to submit files for false positive checks, could try to send it there

[Aslain]

Exactly, this a false-positive.

Rgr, I reported to Avast as a false positive and sent it in for review. I also removed it from Quarantine and reinstated the update and I am dl'ing it as I write this.
