The
beta version of our Mac OSX software, F-Secure Mac Protection, had a serious false alarm last night.
Database update 2011-03-14_03 caused several false alarms in clean files with detection names such as
Exploit:W32/NeosploitPDF.gen!A and
Exploit:JS/Brooks.gen!A. The problematic update was removed after two hours. Beta users who received the update have seen some of their clean files moved to Trash.
This problem only affected users of our Mac OSX beta version (Technology Preview). Our Windows and Linux products were not affected in any way.
We're soon going to release a script that will restore the files from Trash back to their original locations. If you were affected by this issue, please do not empty your Trash in the meantime.
Obviously this is not nice. We'd like to apologize to anyone affected by this error of ours
