I don't really care how good you think it is... or even how good they think it is...
If it is reporting false positives... then it is junk
How much of your time has been wasted, just on this issue?
What about our wasted time?
If someone wastes a few hours of IT time it will definately cost them more than what they thought that they had saved on the AV program. (even worse if they paid a premium price) False positives cost time, lots of time, and time is money.
Can you confirm the virus using another scanner of your choice?
Have you submitted the file to Quick Heal for evaluation?
did you check the hash on the file before and after your process to see if it actually is being changed?
were you able to reproduce the exact same result each time (IE more than once)
Are you runing any service packs as part of your setup that might update this file?
I assume you are doing on access scanning...
your source shows no virus,
DriverPacks shows no virus,
DriverPacks has to be the last step in your process before ISO creation..
So where does it come from?
(It is a magic teleporting virus that can add itself to WORM media )
(( You never answered my question:
Was the network card plugged in during the install?
(link light on, and conncted to a network... and possibly the internet
- I am going to bet the answer to that question is YES. Since it went unanswered)
that would explain different results each time... you are just getting a different virus from the net each time you install lol. if you give a machine internet access during an install you will have a virus before you get to the desktop. even local network access is risky
[are you installing from disc?]
If so just pull the network cable until you have your AV / Firewall in place .
Does the issue still exist?

We don't use Zip... and don't fool with ANY windows dll files.
txtsetup dosnet and setup... that is it, just those three.
we include our own un7zip app...
None of the team has heard of this AV...
collectively we service tens of thousands of machines. (daily)
DriverPacks is downlaoded at the rate of at least a million times a week.
this is the only report out of our tens of millons of users of this issue.
No one at all out of all those people also sees this issue... think about it...
the reviews you point to are all on their site... and not one of them is noteworthy...
Who cares if the Mahratta Chamber of Commerce gave them an award???
(It is a small town with a specialty every one of the businesses is chocked full with MVPs CCIE's and other who saids)
I don't see a single reputable source, like Consumer Reports or PC magazine, in the list...
Google top AV programs / reviews
Check ANY independent list of top AV programs and topheal is not on their list.
So if they can't make a single top ten list, ever not once in 15 years... I think we can all agree it's junk.
And if you really paid as much as you would for Norton then you got taken to the cleaners.
I am sure they have no resources that even come close to compare to SARC.
Although I must admit i have been very disapointed with where Norton has gone since Peter left. I have stopped recomending all of their products for years now.
Either
1 resolve the issue with your process
2 resolve false positive with your prefered AV, or get one that works...
Issue marked solved...
