I like KIS 6 a lot but THE PROACTIVE DEFENSE always say to me that some programs are invaders. I reported a bug when you click keep at some warnings (and such this setting for all)... but the problem is different now: when i click "add to trusted zone" no bug happens but my problem is that the PROACTIVE DEFENSE have lot of FALSE POSITIVES. I send the tibiabot ng (a program that DONT have nothing malicious) to analysis by kaspersky at report new virus. They didnt found nothing.... but when i try to install it on my computer (i have KIS 6.0.0.296 and its my only security program) always the PROACTIVE DEFENSE (and the FILE ANTIVIRUS) say that it tried to install risktool.win32.hooker.a and i cant USE the tibiabot.................................................

Please improve this heuristic of KIS 6 or this wont be like the best heuristic of NOD32 (but nod have a bad bad bad signatures protection).....................................................................

The Proactive defense is not signature based, so the fact that analysis of the file was clean only has significance for the file scan in Kis, not the Proactive which is behavior based, so if you trust the file, then add it as trusted. The file anti-virus detects it as not-a-virus:RiskTool.Win32.Hooker.a so not as virus, but riskware, it's up to you if you want to use it and therefore add it to exclusions.

The heuristics in Kav/Kis are seperate from the Proactive Defense btw. smile.gif
