Avast and Net7


Recommended Posts

Anyone else using Avast having an issue where it's reporting the launcher (launchnet7) as a trojan and quarantining it?  I've scanned it at virustotal and it's clean, I knew it was but wanted to be sure before reporting it as a false positive to Avast.

Now to get it out of the chest and remember how to get around this.

I also had this problem,  What i did (luckily have three computers) is disabled Avast, Then I copied the launchnet7.exe file from one computer to the other, i opened Avast and clicked on safe zone  and added the file path for both Net-7 and EnB client to the list.  then i signed on to my Avast account and added both the Net-7 and the ENB directories to the Exclusions list  so it should ignore these files in teh future.

Ran into some problems with this, myself. Avast returns the EA GAMES\Earth & Beyond\patch.exe|>LaunchNet7.exe is infected by Win32:Agent-AVNG [Trj]

My av (Windows Defender at the time) was maxing out my processor and drive resources, but not alerting me. Currently running a boot-time scan to elimimate any other causes.

Is this a false positive? Edited by LordHypno
