Hi!

First, sorry for my English. I don't speak very well...

Second. Recently, when I press the button "Start Auto Import", my anti-virus (before ESET, now Kaspersky) blocks the Table Manager and shows me this error:

C:\Documents and Settings\Usuario\Configuración Local\Datos de programa\Xenocode\ApplianceCaches\HoldemManager.ex e_v58C3BDD2\Native\STUBEXE\@PROGRAMFILES@\RVGSoftw are\HoldemManager\HMHud.exe

The virus I have is this: backdoor.Win32.Poison.aydb. According to Kaspersky is a trojan.

This all started when I moved to Azartia and I installed a program called PartyTools for the re-buy etc.

I think it's a false alarm but I post this message if someone has suffered the same thing and someone can confirm whether it is actually a virus or is it just a false alarm.

Thanks and bye!

I don't know if it is a trojan or not, but it is old... from July 2009

A lot of people here on this forum had trouble with Kaspersky false positives, but not lately. I will not touch it, but I've never used it myself - just this forum frightened me off the thing :)

This is what I use with no problems.

Avira Antivir

This is an old false positive bug from last november.

Close HEM and your anti-virus and delete any \xenocode\appliance cache folders and any other possible false positive files.

1. Enable "Show hidden files and folders" under Control Panel -> Folder Options -> View
2. Go to C:\Users\%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Xenocode\Appl iance Cache and delete every folder you can find in there

If you are on XP, that location is C:\Documents and Settings\%USERPROFILE%\Local\Application Data\xenocode\appliance cache

Empty your recycle bin.

reboot

Please update to the latest beta - http://www.holdemmanager.com/downloads/HmBetaUpdate.exe


If you have Kaspersky try this:

Holdem Manager Forums - View Single Post - Kaspersky Internet Security 2010 not working with PostgreSQL? Here is the solution! (http://www.holdemmanager.net/forum/showpost.php?p=99782&postcount=10)


or this:

* Go into the KAV settings window.
* Navigate to the Service node.
* Here, turn on the Compatibility mode for programs using self-protection option.

If that does not work then find the "Heuristic Scanning" option in Kaspersky and disable that.
