Hi,
I tried to run Quartus II for the first time. When I attempted to compile a design my antivirus software quarantined one of the files in Quartus II. Is this a known false positive or do I actually have a Trojan? The detection type is 'generic' meaning that the file looks suspicious to the antivirus but no specific threat was detected. OS: Windows XP SP3 App: Quartus II 32-bit Version 13.1.0 Build 162 10/23/2013 SJ Web Edition The above was downloaded from altera.com AV: Avast (Free edition) Ver: 2015.10.0.2208 Virus Definitions Ver: 150220-0 Detection name: Win32:Evo-gen Detection file: C:\altera\13.1\quartus\bin\neto_vlgo.dllLink Copied

There is no problem on Q15.0 or 14.0
The only version that makes troubles is Q13.1.4 Any way, F-Secure confirmed that the dll file is safe and they will update their database accordingly.- Mark as New
