Description:

Following virus warning appears when installing Addrit:

Symantec Virenscanner

Cause:

This is a false alarm of the virus scanner. When installing Addrit the utility "akisetup.exe_" is used. This utility extracts a DLL and then uses it to start the installation. This is a very common process in software installation. The program is classified as a virus by the heuristic from Symantec virus scanner and the Indian scanner "Quick Heal", see also:

Additional Information / Links:

With the above virus scanner please stop this while installing Addrit. If this seems too risky or cannot be performed for other reasons, Addrit can be requested as MSI file for installation under: support@addrit.com.

In fact the installation files for Addrit are virus checked, see:
