OpenOffice Portable 2.4 False Positive?

ultramookie - May 7, 2008 - 6:58pm

Anyone seeing this? I just scanned my USB flash drive and ClamWin Portable says that my OO 2.4 Portable is infected (I subsequently scanned with Symantec and it says nothing is infected).

ClamWin Portable output:

Upload the file sw680mi.dll to:

If the results confirm a false positive upload it to:
ClamAv and report is a probable FP at:

and let them know, be sure to check box for :
"A false positive (it is detected as a virus by ClamAV, but it is not a virus)"

Things have got to get better, they can't get worse, or can they?

thanks!

thanks tim! i checked using the two services you recommended and it does look like a false positive. i've also submitted the file to clamav.

ClamAV and OpenOffice

Hello Tim,

I've got the same problem but with OO 3 beta. The file scmi.dll was an Trojan. Here the destination:

E:\PortableApps\OpenOfficePortableTest\App\OpenOffice.org\Basis 3.0\program\scmi.dll: Trojan.Hupigon-9851

I've scanned with virustotal they scan tha file with 30 Antivitus-programs) and only ClamAV found the Trojan. So I think the dll is harmless.

I hope they updating the program a.s.a.p.

have anytime fun with portableapps.
