Hi,

The above mentioned hydra update included an exclusion to avoid the detection.

The white-list in this case should have effect on all engines.

Hello,

> should be now fixed with the latest Hydra update

Sounds strange? FSC viruslab told me this alert was an Aquarius DB false detection, so how is this remedied by a Hydra update, which belongs to a different scanner engine?

Hello Asco,

Thank you for reporting that.

This is most likely a false positive and should be now fixed with the latest Hydra update (F-Secure Hydra Update 2015-02-20_01).

Could you try to update your network and confirm is the detection is still present?
