Whitelisting Program - Software I have written.

Hi there,

I have been going around in circles on the AVG website. I am a home software developer.

The software I have written has been detected as having a virus, but this is obviously a false positive. I have found the page to register for the Whitelisting Program but it only allows files up to 60MB. Mine are 65MB minimum. The only way to join the program is to upload a file, and the only way to upload a larger file is to be in the Whitelisting Program. I can't find a "banging head against the wall" emoji to use here !

Any AVG staff around who can help out ?

When I upload my exe to Virusstotal, AVG say my file is clean. When run on my own machine, AVG says it's clean. If someone downloads it and runs from the download, AVG reports as being infected ?!??!?!

Any help would be appreciated.

Zoe

Hi Delli,

Thanks for the reply. Please look at that page and you will see that the maximum size any file is only 50MB. That makes it completely useless to me !

Many thanks,

Zoe

Hi Midhun,

I finally got it. Took hours though.

Anyway, I have uploaded the file now but how do I join the Whitelisting Program please ?

Many thanks,

Zoe

p.s. Because if it will mean my files get checked quicker, that's what I would like. When the project is complete, there will be updates fairly regularly.

Many thanks,

Hi Veeramani,

Thanks for your reply but that is not the issue. I was told the Senior Team would be contacting me with regards to the Whitelisting Program.
