[clamav-users] Malwarepatrol false positive

[Steve Basford]

Had a reply back regarding the false positives....


Hello,
?
?Thank you for contacting us and for reporting potential problems with our 
ClamAV signatures. The two entries mentioned were removed from the block 
lists and data feeds a few days ago. Our users and customers should be able 
to download new versions of the feeds according to their subscriptions.
?
?Our means of communication for reporting problems or to ask for assistance 
is via this email address: support at malwarepatrol.net. We'd appreciate if 
you could direct anybody with inquiries to directly contact us.
?
?Once again, thank you for reporting this issue.
?
?Regards,
?
?Luciana
?Malware Patrol Team


So if anyone else sees FPs the above email should be a starting point.

Cheers,

Steve
