Avast isn't much better, honestly. There are only two solutions I would regard as no-headache: ESET and Kaspersky.

I will try Avast. Getting fed up with Avira anyway, always having to manually update it, it's a pain!

I have edited the title of the thread to add '[AVIRA false positive]' as, I think, AVIRA is already doing a pretty good job at scaring Pianoteq users :-)

Avira is crap.

Avira are dragging their heels sorting out the 'trojan' issue with ptq6. Just installed my upgrade today and still got the alert. There was also a 'suspicious file' warning for msregvv.dll, which I assume is something to do with Pianoteq.

Of course.

Thanks.

Same situation. This should be a false positive (I tested the 64bit and 32bit vst3).
This should be related to the Avira's heuristic engine.

Yes, every new major version since 2009 has first been marked as Trojan by avira... Antivirus are a bit annoying at time. I have submitted the file on their website as a false positive.

Yes, probably. It's just a bit surprising.

Avira made me reboot the PC, and now, another PT6 file is considered as a TR : the vst3 file.

Scanned in 60 different anti-virus and only Avira detected as TR/Crypt.ZPACK.Gen2.

I think that is a false positive...
