We have to contact Kaspersky. Has anybody done that?

Victor,

Would you mind doing this - since you have experience dealing with them?

I'd say "Contact Kaspersky", they've been pretty responsive to such
issues with a project I'd worked on a couple of years ago.

[freenet-dev] False Kaspersky positives on Windows

2010-01-18 Thread Christian Funder Sommerlund (Zero3)
With the help from ermanno, I've tracked down the reasons for failed 
Windows installs with Kaspersky.

He was able to confirm that Kaspersky (at least on XP) falsely detects 
the installer as PDM.Worm.P2P.generic. Googling this reveals that it's a 
common bad heuristic that catches all kinds of things (for example: 
Adobe's Flash Player uninstaller).

On top of my head, I see two posibilities:

1) Kaspersky finds the node code and realizes that this is indeed some 
kind of P2P.

2) Kaspersky freaks out over the local port scan the installer does to 
find a free fproxy and fcp port.

I'm not sure which is most likely. What do we do now? Contact Kaspersky 
and ask them to fix their stuff? Or just directly warn users not to use 
Freenet with Kaspersky?
