Norton Security Suite still does not like GSX...

[Pirateinparadise]

I installed the latest update last night. Ever since, I have been getting warnings from Norton Security Suite.

I have been ignoring the warning about this "infection". What are the TUTO4PC, and freeSoftToday used for in GSX? Can you please verify that this is a false report?

I installed the latest update last night. Ever since, I have been getting warnings from Norton Security Suite.

It's very well known that Norton is defective and it's the worse offender with regard to false positives. It's funny that this time, it mistakenly reported the couatl_updater.exe, but to the main Couatl.exe, most likely because we HAVE reported Couatl.exe as a false positive to them, but never though Norton could be so bugged that it could also flag just the *updater* as a threat, which is absurd, since it's not encrypted, doesn't use any anti-tampering methods and doesn't do anything except downloading files...

We are keep getting surprised how much bugged an antivirus might be, and Norton is the absolute champion of bugs...

I have been ignoring the warning about this "infection". What are the TUTO4PC, and freeSoftToday used for in GSX? Can you please verify that this is a false report?

Yes, of course it's a false positive.

However, nothing in your log indicates that Norton (albeit mistakenly) reported the TUTO4PC and freeSoftToday trojans in any of our products. The Norton mistake about the couatl_updater.exe was ONLY about the  SAPE.Eorezo.m02, not these other two.

So, I would check your system, because you MIGHT be infected by these other two.

Or, it might just be ANOTHER false positive.
