There seems to be a core problem with antivirus detection and purebasic currently. I just compiled a x86 PB exe with a simple MessageRequester("test", "test requester")" and bitdefender instantly detected and quarantained it. It compiled into a tiny 5kb executable and was now send to bitdefener support for further analysis.
Lets see what they say. I have to pay for a new AV solution again anyway and if they cant fix this, i will switch again. I suggest everybody of you does the same and reports here which AV solution thinks its a threat and which isnt.
Compile the following line into a x86 executable:
Code: Select all
MessageRequester("test", "test requester")
30.10.2018 bitdefender internet security 2018 both antivirusscanner and advanced threat detection wrongly detect and quarantaine/erase it.
Support is contacted and has a zipped copy of the executable for analysis.
If you use a different AV solution, please compile the line into x86 code and tell if you can launch the executable or what happens if you try. I will report my reply from bitdefender here.
Lets see which vendor will get my/our money for next year.
