Title: McAfee Continues to Harm WinPatrol Users
Post by: Corrine on October 10, 2010, 03:47:09 PM
QuoteTwo weeks ago McAfee changed one of their signature files and it started to tell all their customers our WinPatrol setup programs was a dangerous Trojan named Artemis!4FAE1D776481.  A week ago I finally found the correct procedure to submit my file and report their "false-positive" error. I was told by an automated Email that their test was inconclusive and the file was being sent to Bangalore India for more research.

Bill re-created the WinPatrol setup program by purchasing a new install package called Tarma InstallMate 7.  McAfee not does report a false problem with this new setup. If you are still a McAfee user, you can download the new installation file from http://www.winpatrol.com/download.html.

Update:  Bill Pytlovany posted elsewhere that  Steven Burn, who manages the website www.it-mate.co.uk and hpHosts, was helpful in getting a response from McAfee.  After over two weeks, this has finally been resolved.
