Symantec detects virus in Thesycon Audio Eval-Win-Driver

[Kasebe]

Hello,

I installed XMOS USB-Audio driver for Windows made by Thesycon(TUSBAudio_EvalKit_v3.20.0.exe).
Symantec installed in my Windws7 PC detected virus(Trojan.Gen.SMH).

https://www.symantec.com/security_respo ... 22-2144-99

The corresponding files are XMOS_EVAL_KITS_DEMO_DriverSetup_v3.20.0_dgb.exe, XMOS_EVAL_KITs_DEMO_DriverSetup_v3.20.0.exe.

Does XMOS(Thesycon) plan to improve this virus problem?

Thanks and regards,
Kasebe

The tool's top page is here.

Calculation procedure is shown as below.
1. Download digestIT_x64.msi from above link.
2. Install digestIT_x64.msi in your 64bit windows PC.

Hello Kasebe,

It looks all good.
Is your virus-checker is up to date?
I don't know what algorithm your virus-checker uses - but can it produce a false-positive result?

Best wishes,
Henk

I would like to just say Symantec security policy refuses Thesycon Evaluation driver install.

Thanks,
