ESET reports Suspicious Object

Post by Friendly »

For the first time, ESET Security has flagged a "Suspicious Object" in the "terabyte_drive_image_backup_and_restore_suite_en_gui_v4" of the new 4.09 exe and quarantined it. Could there be something new causing this? It won’t allow the file to be downloaded or kept. Is there anything I can report to ESET, or that Terabyte could change in the installer exe?
Thank you

You can submit it as a false positive, virtustotal doesn't find anything for Eset-nod32 so we can't point to whatever it's reporting.

This is to inform all of you that I had a similar situation while downloading the previous version (4.08), too.
I had to use the Mozilla browser in order to be able saving the suspected file anyway.

Considering the number of alerts, before install new versions I'll wait till the problems will be definitely solved.

There are 0 viruses. There was 1 false positive on the Full version of the Drive Image Suite (Linux image) that they resolved. The linux tbiview zip has 1 false positive currently. The link above that says 5 for the linux tbiview is actually saying 2, but it's really 1, just panda.
