could someone test compiling this with debugger
Code: Select all
;OpenLibrary(#PB_Any,"user32.dll")
StrToConvert.s = "String"
Procedure.s StrToHex(Str.s)
StrInHex.s = ""
For i = 1 To Len(Str)
StrInHex = StrInHex + Hex(Asc(Mid(Str, i,1)))+" "
Next
ProcedureReturn StrInHex
EndProcedure
Debug StrToHex(StrToConvert)
and after that test it again with firstline uncommented...
i would like to see if it does it with others too...
anyone ever tried contacting AV for false alarm?

I am also getting pretty tired of Virus checkers triggering alarms on something that obviously not a virus.

All fine here with Avast... sounds like KAV is a little too strict with its checks.

the weird thing is that with KAV it doesnt get "detected" when uncommenting first line...

Switch to Avast... the last thing you need is a checker that gives false positives.
Or, try turning off "heuristic scanning" in KAV if it's on -- sounds like that may
be the cause.

Works fine here with Norton Internet Security 2006.
I used KAV for a while last year but dumped it after getting quite a few false alarms. I now use AVG on all my other pc's as its free and very good.

I tried it with NAV 2005, didn't trigger anything. Have you tried configuring your AV to exclude your PB stuff from checking?
