Hello.
For some reason Kaspersky AV, alerts me of: trojan.win32.agent.ixj
when i try using the "backup" feature. it's some file in folder that is being created in the user's temp directory in windows, when trying to use "backup" feature of suite.
Didn't have that problem before. Maybe this trojan was added to database of Kaspersky only lately. Nevertheless it's a trojan. Tried it with Suit Standard, light, and beta -same problem.
Anyone has a solution?
I mean, if it's a false detection, why does it pop up only on backup?

Have you tried redownloading the suite? Done an MD5 sum verification? (No, I have no idea what an MD5 sum is either) Checking to make sure your antivirus is updated?

An md5sum is basically just a file's "signature." If the file changes, so does the signature.
Upload the backup utility to http://www.virustotal.com/.

When i scanned the file myself with Kaspersky it returned "no threats" but when trying to backup, it sounds the alarm. I guess it thinks a trojan action is taking place...
I compressed the backup utility and uploaded it. Here are the results:

Sometimes, I feel like there should be an entire topic on virus reports.
Simplifying daily life through technology
..and Kaspersky isn't the only one having trouble :
https://portableapps.com/node/12499
Why ? Either because AV-programs are quite stupid
OR the AV-manufacturers want you to feel that their
scam-programs work and that the world is filled with "trojans".
Anyway to tell kaspesky not to alert for this suite trojan?
You need to report it to get Kaspersky to fix their buggy update.
Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
I posted a thread in the Kaspersky forum...
I informed Kaspersky on the problem. They confirmed the false alarm and said it'll be fixed as soon as possible.
No alert anymore
