Kaspersky flags ACC as virus about assistantcomputercontrol HOT 10 CLOSED

@anthonybaldwin please help by submitting a False Positive report here; https://www.bitdefender.com/consumer/support/answer/29358/

Kaspersky replied with this today;

"Sorry, it was a false detection. It will be fixed.
Thank you for your help."

So that should be fixed soon - closing issue.

It's hard getting Anti Virus softwares to trust anything that doesn't have millions of downloads, sadly. It might be because I just had to sign the software with a new key, as the old one expired, but I can assure you; no Trojan horse (or any other kind of harmful stuff) is in the new update (or any old).

Will reach out to Kaspersky and see if they can shine some light on it - thanks :)

If you'd go to this link and follow the guide that shows how to mark it as a false positive, it'd help a lot! https://support.kaspersky.com/common/error/other/1870, would like for it to not trigger a warning at all.

Bitdefender doesn't like the un/installer.
