[QUOTE="SeriousHoax, post: 1020856, member: 78686"] Guys don't overthink it and no need to to contact support over this. Firstly, this is not a false positive. Just look at the detection name. ESET now considers Kerish Doctor as a PUA. ESET adds PUA detection for many such apps and they won't remove this detection. The creation of this kind of exact detection is a concise choice from them. I have a portable version of a downloader named, EagleGet which I use on rare occasions. ESET suddenly added a similar named PUA detection for it in the middle of last year. Since I use it, I created a signature exclusion for it in my ESET. Now ESET would never detect any EagleGet files with this exact EagleGet signature on my system. I trust this app so it's safe. The case of Kerish Doctor is the same. ESET has now created a PUA detection for it, as they did in the past for IOBIT, AusLogics, Microsoft Bing Wallpaper, Avast installer, uTorrent, etc many other apps. It's normal for them. Nothing to be panicked/surprised about it. If you trust it, and want to use it then create an exclusion. ESET gives you the option of many types of exclusions like file based, folder based, signature based and hash based. [/QUOTE]
