Post subject: | IDP.ALEXA.51 threat blocked from AVG for Nexus-Ultimate.exe |
Just got an AVG block for IDP.ALEXA.51 for a threat in the Nexus-Ultimate.exe. I did an online search (seems possibly false positive for some game apps) and searched here, but cannot find anything directly related to the Dock software. Does anyone have any info? I can either quarantine or allow an exception. Thanks ETA, software was purchased and downloaded from this site. |

Provided it was downloaded from the Winstep web site, the file is safe. Either way, for complete peace of mind just upload the nexus-ultimate.exe executable file to VirusTotal. That's like 60 different AV engines dissecting a single file. Sometimes you might get one or two false positives from the less reputable engines, but if that is all you get then it's a false positive for sure. |

Thank you, i will try that. Should I upload the actual RUN file located in the C: program files or the installation file or both? |

You can upload the setup file if you want, but Avast only flagged nexus-ultimate.exe so that is what you should upload. |
