McAfee Site Advisor Result

Post by AnimeMega » Mon Jun 27, 2011 12:16 am

Hello folks! I'm a new member here and I'm just concern. My McAfee SiteAdvisor found this website risky (?). The screenshot is below:

Again, I'm just concern. So far there's nothing wrong happening on my pc. I'm also using Avast! Internet Security.

Thanks,
AniMega

Yep, we know about this, and it's a false positive.
It's been mentioned before.

amvapp1_02b is a very dated installer for the amvapp in the original Technical Guides to All Things Audio and Video by Absolute Destiny and ErMaC. It's basically a bundle of programs helpful for editing including Avisynth, LAME, DVD2AVI, HuffYUV and some avisynth plugins (decomb and mpeg2dec).

Does keeping around the severely out of date AV guides and their respective amvapps serve a useful purpose? I can understand keeping the most recent previous version for those that started working with the AV guides before the current version was written, but by now, there should be no reason for people to use at least these two guides:

http://www.animemusicvideos.org/guides/ ... efault.htm
http://www.animemusicvideos.org/guides/avtechold/

The most recent of those two is nearly 9 years old.

Removing these would also take care of the headache of resolving McAfee's false positive without going through the process of asking them to review the issue. (Although it might take a while to flush out of their system since that file's link was last checked by McAfee in Sept 2010. I'm guessing they check links once a year?)

Probably should have hit this thread instead of the other one, but even though it was removed, the site adviser software put the site on a block list.

Seems link the link was last tested in September. It may be a while before they test again unless someone tells them that they need to.
