Norton Internet Security / Norton AntiVirus

[Corman]

Hi there,

I have a program on my pc, A2Uploader, that I know is harmless, yet still it is being flasgged as a virus. I have excluded it from auto-protect and scans, but it's rather cumbersome if you want to copy it somewhere else (e.g. while making a back-up)

The program creator is aware of any false positives, as he uses a special encryption method to protect the program from its loaders being sniffed. A2Uploader is a program that allows the A200 platform Sony Ericsson phones to be modded.

Please Symantec, add this file to the safe programs :)

Thanks for the links :). I filled in as accurate as possible, but I am not the vendor of the program - is that a problem?
