I understand that but isn't it weird that they haven't white listed their own product before releasing it !!

If you just tick the "Always trust the publisher of this file" option, wouldn't it stop this from happening in the future. I agree ideally it shouldn't happen at all.

Obviously it should, but why should i, isn't it their own product

I'm not familiar with how they hash their files or what type of digital signing they use, so I can't answer that.

Yes and no...

They have various development teams located in different parts of the world.

If one of the teams makes a release when it is after hours for another team, it is not unexpected that something like this should occur.

However, it is definitely confusing, and in a perfect world should not happen.

Throughout history every company has done this. Heck many years ago Norton detected NPE as malicious. It's called a false positive and should be posted in the Comodo forums where it can get the proper attention.

I think this will be solved in a couple of hours or so going by what heffed said!! but i doubt that it should be called a FP

Well when any products detects something legit as suspicious or malware that's called a false positive.
