A recent update of Avast Antivirus is blocking my game made with Adobe AIR.

Users install adobe air and then install the game via .air

After the install, when the game launch, Avast remove the .exe

Anyone having this issue too?

I'd like to investigate this.  Can you tell me what version of Avast and which operating system this is occurring on?  Any chance I could also get your game to test against?  Please feel free to email me at ccampbel@adobe.com.

Thanks,

Chris

Hi chris,

For me, it comes from the use of the FileStream class in my project.

The symantec cloud antivirus  (Endpoint Protection) detects the Air application as a malicious application and blocks it..

Best regards

Franck

Hi Franck,

I'm trying to find a contact at Symantec to help report a false positive.  If you haven't already, can you go to these page and report/submit your application?

https://submit.symantec.com/false_positive/

https://submit.symantec.com/whitelist/

Thanks,

Chris
