Alanon Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 I just installed the Hitman Pro 3.5.6 latest build, did a scan, rebooted, etc... And than PrevX comes along and says that ''hitmanpro35.sys'' is a virus! Has anyone else had this issue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Lite Posted July 13, 2010 Administrator Share Posted July 13, 2010 Most likely is. What is the location of this file? You should flag is as a false positive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jalaffa Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 Could not replicate on a 64-bit install of Hitman Pro and PrevX Safeoneline. PrevX did NOT detect hitmanpro35.sys' as anything. Hash value of your suspected file and 32 or 64 bit setup you should provide info about! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alanon Posted July 14, 2010 Author Share Posted July 14, 2010 The file is located in the C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers folder. It measures 16.5 kilobytes (MD5: 9a035acdb3202e3894252c4c4e0874c8). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Lite Posted July 14, 2010 Administrator Share Posted July 14, 2010 Have you re-scanned since the initial detection? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alanon Posted July 14, 2010 Author Share Posted July 14, 2010 I did a scan a couple of days ago, and it was quite odd. When I do an on-demand scan, everything is clean, however, a startup scan detects the ''hitmanoro35.sys'' as a threat... I do a regular startup scan with Hitman Pro and Prevx. I can only assume that ''hitmanpro35.sys'' is some kind of a startup driver for Hitman, and that Prevx flags it while it's operating... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Lite Posted July 14, 2010 Administrator Share Posted July 14, 2010 Flag it as a false positve ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

someone Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 How is the level applied to age/spread detections? if you put it in the max, it will always flag a recent updated program... not because is a virus, but because it is recently created (newly updated!!!!) and/or not is much present in the cloud( not muchpeople updated the software).
