XBLite Forum  /  General Programming Discussion  /  "TR/Crypt.XPACK.Gen" trojan pops up when compiled!
Posted by: ExoTek, April 27, 2009, 9:20pm
I keep getting the "TR/Crypt.XPACK.Gen" warning when I compile my code ...
My anti-virus is "Avira home edition" and the code I just tryed is the "menu" demo in the "gui" sub-dir.

Can anyone tell me what file keeps getting infected and why...
Every time I find myself re-downloading xbl and re-installing it, its ok for a while and then BANG!!!  :(

Of course, the first time that this happened, I went through a total scan of my system with both my anti-vir and "spy-bot" but it is still comming back! And the worst part is that it only happens with my most beloved xbl :) (I put a smiley here but in fact I was looking for a little face drowning in a sea of tears!)

Heeeelp!!

Hi Exo,

It is very likely a false positive.  See a discussion here (http://www.masm32.com/board/index.php?topic=10462.0) of this problem in association with using GoAsm, the assembler used as the backend to xblite.

Thanks Greg,

That explains it all.

At least now I nkow that there is nothing behind this.
Worst comes to worst I just tell Avira to 'Ignore' and go on...

It still bug me though that it doesn't do it every times... Usualy, a computer will always comes to the same result given a particular situation...?
I guess that somethings turn out differently from one time to another and that's enaugh to trigger the alarm?...

Anyways, thanks again Greg.  :)
