My antivirus software indicates a Trojan horse in the ProMax 3.0.9065 distribution DVD. Do I need to be concerned?
Unfortunately, several common antivirus programs over aggressively indicate a false positive for viruses, especially in the file reg2.exe. This program is actually supplied by a third party vendor, and the application is of the type that can frequently cause this false indication. Two antivirus programs that we are familiar with that indicate this false positive are AVG and ZoneAlarm. Our supplier is working with these (and other) antivirus vendors to white-list these files so they are not falsely flagged in the future. In order to install and run ProMax, you will need to disable virus scanning on this particular file. You also will likely need to disable the antivirus program on the reg2.exe file in the %ProgramFiles%\Bryan Research & Engineering Inc\ProMax3 folder after the installation is completed to prevent the antivirus software from relocating the file to its quarantine folder.
