proton777 Posted November 12, 2013 Report Share Posted November 12, 2013 Just want to report something about my .exe project which I loaded onto my office PC a few days ago.After having that file on my work machine for several days and after viewing it several times, my office I.T. department informed me of a problem with my exe file just yesterday.The I.T. guy emailed me:Host intrusion Detection did not like something in the file... it was seen by Bit Defender as “The program tried to inject its code into the process space of another application.No further details.He said Bit Defender blocked whatever action the .exe file was trying to do but didn't delete or quarantine the .exe file. It wasn't a virus, per se.Currently using Bit Defender Business client 3.5.12. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Igor Posted November 12, 2013 Report Share Posted November 12, 2013 proton777,Thanks for letting me know about this problem.It's false positive in Bit Defender software.What version of PicturesToExe you used to create that EXE slideshow?

The output is 1920 x 1080. I have an AVI, MP4, EXE for Mac and EXE for Windows PC. It appears to be from file for PC.Hope this is what you're looking for.

That should my version unless there are different builds within each version. If there are different builds, I can get that info later.Just to be clear, the machine with the anti-virus issue does NOT have the PTE software installed on it. It only has the published PTE projects on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Igor Posted November 13, 2013 Report Share Posted November 13, 2013 proton777,Thanks for the details!I just uploaded a short test slideshow created in PicturesToExe 7.5.10 to VirusTotal.com online service.

Unfortunately, my problem exe file is too large for VirusTotal to scan.I'm confident there is no virus and I think I convinced my I.T. department it was a false positive. I installed that same file on at least 5 other people's PCs at work and the I.T. department said it was only a problem on my PC. I'm tempted to reload the file back onto my office PC to see if the same thing happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MUR Posted November 13, 2013 Report Share Posted November 13, 2013 Some of you are happy people, because Bitdefender (mi antivirus for several years), one day delete all my PTEexe files, without any warning (backuped), and still today refuse to open Beechbrook (I use another computer with diferent antivirus, for that).MUR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last time it took a few days before any problem appeared. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
