Just a did a VIRUSTOTAL scan of a project of mine. Geee it has nothing to do with blackhat stuff !

Looks like everything done with UB triggers a couple of warnings.

How can we stop this ?

 

Thanks

 

EDITED:

Just tried to download it from my web site. AVAST blocked it :wacko:

Win32 Evo-Gen crap !

Just submitted a report to them to try to unblock the software.

 

Anything else i could do ? Thanks

Well i meant from bots created by UBOT. They all look like if it's something bad. You cannot download them nor try to run them. At least on my end and i use avast.

Also the virustotal always give a bad report. Ain't good at all for the biz either.

 

How do you guys prevent this ?

Only by telling people that it's false positive ? Or with procedures on how to unblock them with Avast ?

 

What shall i add to the bot to make it look OK  in other words ?

Trusted in way ?

Do you have an .ico file for it? it helps.

 

It's for the application icon that shows in windows and the task bar.

 

You can use gimp or many free online services to make one.

 

256x256 is the max size

 

need dev edition I think

 

I uploaded one for you to test.

 

I can make you one If needed.

Odd as i do have an .ico

I wonder if the one i'm using could be "burned" as weird as it seems ?

 

Anymore ideas guys ? This is really a problem for me right now.

Cant make this work on JVZoo because it gives me virus alert. How are we supposed to sell a bot to customer if they see it as possible infection?

 

Can anyone give any solution?

More alerts, looks like this ubot 5 is still in beta version!!!

 

Ubot 4 have zero virus alerts.

Version 4 wins!!!

First virustotal is from version 4, second from version 5. Same bot, just a different ubotstudio used for compiling.

 

Looks like i m back to using version 4, because i dont see a single advantage of version 5 over version 4.

Well.. to be fair I have to say that this isn't just a problem of Ubot studio. Many other development applications can cause similar issues.

If the AVs are detecting a core Ubot file or the way Ubot encrypts the exe files then yes, it is indeed Ubots problem and there is nothing we as users can do about it. Looking at what Dan has said, with no plugins its still being flagged thats pointing firmly at a Ubot problem.

Bump... this happens for the browser.exe file in ubot 5...

A major setback and I believe this should be a free patch for anyone - especially developers...

Any intention of solving this?

I am running the latest version of UBot. A client just reported he deleted all the compiled bot files, I send him because his anti-virus program flagged it as trojan.

Guys ... this is not good for business! And i must say i am rellay pissed. Paid 1K for a dev version and the update fee to have a reliable awesome application.

But the best bot ide is useless if the resulting files can NOT be used and trusted.

 

I am better of creating bots the old fashioned way (in python) if this is not fixed soon.

 

Seriously. Guys please focus on getting THIS MAJOR ISSUE resolved.

Cheers
Tony

P.S. No serious business or corporate policy (talking about rules in IT infrastructure) in the world will allow these bots to be executed in any environment when these false positives show up.
Guys I do not want to trash ubot ... i love the IDE and all the passion you put in ... but this major false-positive issue makes the software NOT useable because IT is NOT accepted by clients in the professional biz.

Open a ticket with support or place the issue on the tracker. We have contacted many anti virus companies over the years over false positives. If you give us specifics about your client's issue, we can contact the company.

 

See you in support.
