McAfee Anti Virus has quarantined Aered!

Post by mooktbm » Wed Oct 24, 2018 2:49 am

Hi,

For no apparent reason, McAfee has quarantined Aered.
I have been using it for years with no problems.

I tried to download it again and it quarantined it as soon as i tried to open it, any ideas?

this is the message it gave:

JTI/Suspect.196612!
03c624390c53

Thanks

Richard

I haven't seen this before for Aered but McAfee VirusScan is known to have a big problem with false positives. For example, googling the McAfee message from your post I see that a number of computer games on Steam have the exact same problem. You should be able to whitelist the Aered executable so that McAfee no longer quarantines it.
