F-Secure kills the .exe file. I'll submit the file.

The signature is legit and valid. That's important.

I also tested it at Any.run and it didn't seem malicious at all. Zero connections and just a simple schedule entry so it's probably a FP ( false positive ). I'll update as soon I got the answer back from F-Secure.

Thanks @CyberTech :emoji_beer:

@DeepWeb This multiple instance detection is a part of its own protection, but we will add multi user support in v2.2.

@CyberTech At the moment not all AV vendors directly whitelist us, e.g. as far es we know e.g. Kaspersky is doing this. We always aim for fixing the most important false detections, but happily our users report false positives as well. You can verify our binary files by checking the code certificate.
Windows Security is already fixed.

@upnorth Thanks for reporting this.

F-Secure.
Thank you for your submission. Our analysis has found that the file you submitted is clean. We have identified the issue as a False Positive, which will be resolved automatically via F-Secure's Security Cloud.
Both F-Secure and Avira has now whitelisted the software as it's a crystal clear FP, and I can also confirm Microsoft did the same. (y)

@HSDev , keep try contact those other companies/vendors if you haven't already.

Hi, when I'm in the process of configuring the application, I can't type the accent. I am using the Mexican Spanish keyboard, but when I press the accent key and then the letter simply does not appear with a accent.

Hi Ghostpress development team...

I have a problem with 2.0 and above releases of Ghostpress. When I tried running the program on the PCs at my local Internet Cafe (which implemented some Windows OS access restrictions to the PCs). The active window of the browser screen totally blanked out, can't see the cursor, screen or anything, it's like the whole PC just lost power. I noticed that it's affected the active windows because I minimized the screens of the browsers and only that part of the screen blanked or blacked out.

May I humbly request that you post an copy of Ghostpress version 1.4 to your website or to majorgeeks.com for those who can't run the 2.0 releases of Ghostpress? I can make do with the basic anti-keylogging functions that is version 1.4 provides.

Many thanks & Merry Christmas!

hi @HSDev ,

I would like to inform you that the current and latest version Ghostpress 2.2, cannot be run at the Internet Centre's PCs in my area.

The error message is: "Ghostpress requires Windows Aero to be enabled in order to function! Simply select an Aero design!"

It seems that there are restrictions on Windows Aero function on the PCs here.

Thanks!

I tried using ghostpress but made typing impossible on the telegram app. I had to close the app to type correctly again.
