Are you a virus?

[Maarten]

Avast warns me that the DELFTship I just downloaded contains Win32:Evo-gen. What should I do?

While we support and appreciate sound safety procedures, it appears Avast has recently made some changes that appear a bit too critical; many false positives have been reported. We’ll never recommend turning of your virus scanner, but a second opinion may be useful- we have tested against several virus scanners, and are quite certain that there have been no infections..

AVAST offers an online scan engine (on their blog page re false positives). We have uploaded the latest version of DELFTship, the results are all negative (so, that’s good)

Feel free to upload it yourself at https://www.virustotal.com/

You could help by also filing a false positive report to Avast!
