Introducing, The New Prevx Edge.

If you rescan, I believe I fixed it ~10 hours ago

 

Hmmm - weird - the 2nd time I got it was 1 hour ago but I will scan again.

Thanks,
Mark.

 

You also do have heuristics on maximum and are testing beta software - the "FP" will automatically correct itself, and in this case its probably fastest just to click Trust Always.

 

Joe,

Actually it's released as far as I see. But the scan did indeed clear.

Thanks,
Mark.

(Released meaning Avira 9, not Edge - still on .17 there)

 

Ah ok, thanks for the clarification

 

No worries - released just 2 days ago or so...I'm sure you've been busy doing a few other things

 

Yo Joe: Don't know if the new build trying to update but this is the error I received, ESET got rid of a TON of Prevx files. Have notified support but no way to upload the error. What happened?

 

Add the Prevx folder to the exclusions in NOD32

 

ESET does periodically produce FPs against us - you will have to add the Edge folder (C:\program files\prevx\) to the exclusions list in ESET, as well as the install file which exists at %TEMP%\pxinstall*.exe

In the meantime, you may want to just use the current public version 3.0.1.17 as I believe that is not detected by ESET.

 

one FP

e:\lenovo\lan\2tjy53usa.exe [PX5: 17967055002B894854600DCDB067D60094B5A5FD]

 

Eset detecte JUST the setup of upgrade prevx 3.0.1.17 -> 3.0.1.32
disallow eset, make update and when finish, re-activate protection

 

After running exclusions on ESET there was still a file in the C:\WINNT\TEMP directory by the name of px something. Went by so fast, but in the meantime 3.0.1.7 auto updated to the 3.01.32 and appears the waters have calmed once again.

 

Yes that is what it does a normal scan! Just to confirm about the single file scan it also does a normal scan.

Yes, this is "correct" (well, that's what it does not and it is definitely NOT correct, but it should be fixed shortly )

 

Is the final new version planned soon, or should I download the beta-build to ensure frequent new updates?

 

You may want to wait - the final version will be out quite soon (maybe today, possibly over the weekend )

 

The next beta will be coming out in ~30 mins or so. It fixes the handling of the right click scans and now won't bother the user with a popup when the update finishes

 

Okay, Joe - I'll wait (if you want me to ). Excited about the version with lots of new features.

 

That isn't coming just yet, but we're in the process of planning out exactly when the new features will be coming

 

Oh, I mean no rush ("DAAAAH!" ). No, seriously, I'm just joking.

 

fixed :

Great Thanks for letting us know

 

Bug report: Each day when i look in the main GUI it will still report As of today, Edge has cleaned 7 infections wich was days ago as u might remember. It seems it doesnt reset itself.

 

That is correct - since installation, as of today, Edge has cleaned 7 infections. It is a historical count

 

Prevx Update completely hosed my system

Got an update this morning to v37. Started out being blocked by my firewall, came back and said OK, but Prevx didn't run. So brought it up manually, and it said it had entered my registration, looked like it updated, and said I should reboot. Reboot got me a consistent BSOD from pxscan.sys with the message DRIVER_UNLOADED_WITHOUT_CANCELLING_PRNDING_OPERATION. So I tried to go to Safe mode, and near the end of the boot sequence, got another BSOD from Prevx. Then the computer would no longer boot at all. So currently restoring an image, but WARNING WARNING: Do not select option to run a scan at boot time; there appears to be no way out if you have a problem-Prevx still loads stuff in Safe mode.
