Conemu getting removed by Norton antivirus as suspcious file.

1

I just formatted my PC, and activated Norton and download conemu from http://www.fosshub.com/ConEmu.html [the Alpha, Installer (32-bit, 64-bit) ].

But, after installing it, and just an hour or so after using it, Norton antivirus blocked and removed Conemu saying it was a behaving suspiciously of Norton warning.

I don't know what is wrong. I have a fresh install of Windows 7, 32 bit. And Updated version of Norton antivirus.

I believe it's a false positive. ConeEmu is a reputable app and you should consider this:

  1. Check the VirusTotal scan report here.

  2. Report the issue to the author, maybe he can figure what caused Norton to delete ConEmu - check down the page, there's a link and a button named "Report an Issue".

Hope this helps!

No need to report issues about false alarms. Antiviral-program user must report false alarm to antiviral-program authors! Related wiki: https://code.google.com/p/conemu-maximus5/wiki/FalseAlarms
