    Last night I´ve had a NOD32 vir warning. It aplies at Norton IS 2004 (firewall, not AV): ISSTE.dll > CRYPT.WIN32 Virus
    The FW hangs, and I need to restart my computer. After that I´ve just scan again that directory and nothing´s found.
    I´ve just added that directory to a temporary not scan option. But don´t know if this could be correct.
    Any sugestions?

    Hi BF, can you send a copy of your scan log to support@nod32.com if it is a false positive they will let you know and fix it in the next update or so...

    Cheers :D

    Here is a discussion on isste.dll
    Link

    Appears to be a false alarm. I would wait for Eset's reply to be sure.

    Hi Backfolder,
    I received the file in question, but my AMON didn't detect anything in it, even with AH enabled and the heuristics sensitivity set to deep. Please make sure your NOD32 is up to date.

    Hi Marcos, from the link provided by Ronjor, it appears to be a false positive.

    Cheers :D

    Um, yeah but... o_O

    That thread says KAV detected that file as a false positive, not NOD32. And the KAV folks fixed it so it doesn't detect anymore. And, in this thread Marcos has a copy of the file from backfolder, and it is not being detected as a false positive by a current NOD32. So, either backfolder really got an alert from KAV, or as Marcos suggests they might have an out of date NOD32.

    That is why I mentioned Eset in the reply. It does state in the discussion that the file in question is part of the program being discussed.

    Well, this happend to me in two diferent machines this same week. This mine and one of a friend. The thing is that the Virus Definition is 1.795 (20040625) in my machine. And also updated im my friend´s machine to any previous. The effect is NIS get disabled and you exposed to the damages of the net.
    - My pc: NIS04 yet installed, and then/over NOD32, get this warning.
    - The guy: NOD32 yet installed, and then/over NIS04, and get this warning. Result is corrupted installation of the rest of NIS and then you need to uninstall, disable AMON - NOD32, and reinstall.

    KAV Online says:
    ---------------
    Scanned file: ISSTE.dll

    ISSTE.dll - packed with XLok
    ISSTE.dll - OK

    Strange NOD behavior, never happend before.

    Thanks anyway to all.

    Hey LWM, I caught that ;) It just looked like there was an issue regarding that particular file and Kav, and there appears still to be a problem while installing with Nod on a system, maybe this is the only way the problem can be replicated?

    Cheers :D

    Hi Folks,

    I have the same problem with false positive, but installing the last version of Nero 6.3.1.17.
