Threat blocked by free avast antivirus

[mario81]

Hello all,

I was looking to install unilogic ver. 1.32.61 for my job use just downloaded from the https://www.unitronicsplc.com/software-visilogic-for-programmable-controllers/

While the installation was running it was stoped by my free avast antivirus saying that threat blocked , We've  blocked UniLogic.dat because  it was infected with IDPGeneric.

Has any of you facing this blocked till now?

Thank you!

Mario, that link you gave is not for Unilogic, it's for Visilogic.  So the question might relate to where you got the Unilogic file from?  Looking at your screenshot, it appears that you got it from here, which should be ok:

https://unitronicsplc.com/Download/SoftwareVersions/UniLogic/UniLogicSetup_1_32_Build_61.exe

Have you done a complete system scan before running the file, in case there's something lurking on your system?

cheers, Aus

Hello Aus, Yes I had a complete scan after the antivirus notification without a virus see it by antivirus even if I am trying to scan just the downloaded file not seeing a virus. The file was downloaded from the unitronicsplc.com the original website

I've just downloaded the file and my paid A/V spent a fair while examining it all, but came up with nothing wrong anywhere.  I would say it's a limitation of using the free version of Avast.

cheers, Aus
