Hi, recently I've got a problem.

I've written a simple application with C++ and compiled it with the clang++ compiler.

This is a test application that only prints out hello world to test if compilers run. Nothing fancy in the code. And only consumes the iostream library.

Kaspersky thinks that this compiled software is infected with Trojan.Win32.Convagent

Ok, that is possible. False detection issues are the thing that all antivirus software does but to ignore this;

I took the steps below:

I have added the folder to exclusions as shown below:

Also, I've added the executable itself. But it is changing every time I recompile the app.

But I can't get rid of the notification as it is still infected.

Even if I click Ignore in the drop-down Nothing Happens.

And still got a notification if I try to run the compiled EXE.

The EXE file runs without issues but the notification below shows up.

And only choices I got are "Delete" or "Block".

I chose "delete" and not deleted.

After that, this is shown up:

Also, I can't get rid of the infection notification in Kaspersky's Notification Center.

I can't use my computer as I want.

I am not a Virus I want to use my computer guys.

What can I do?

Is there something I forgot to do?

How can I convince Kaspersky that this is not a Trojan or malicious?

 

Thanks...

I think it is because of the name of the executable. I've changed the compiler settings to create "helloworld.exe" same code only exe name is different. And, that is running without an issue.

 

I would have deleted the topic but I think I am not permitted to do that.

 

Thanks.

Add some note at the end.

I think it is not false positive... And detection was correct.

And wait for both analyzes. And show us screenshot.
