Hello,

Sorry to hear you are having issues. Usually, that is false positive.

Thanks

What do you mean "It is usually a false positive?" Does the word usually mean that sometimes it is not a false positive?

Programs that directly interact with an OS, eg. Stardock's GUI apps will often be flagged by the lower-quality AV programs as 'malicious'.

The lower the reputation of the AV proggy for maintaining updates and signatures - the more common the false-positive reports.

Yes, it's a false-positive.

No Stardock software is 'malicious', however the same cannot be said for pirated versions that might be found on the net.  All 'Warez' should always be assumed malicious....;)

It means that the actual stardock software is not a virus but that does not meant that it can not have a virus in it. For example if you have a cracked version of the software it could come along with a virus embedded. But if it came from this site it will just be a false positive.
