Dolphin Viewer False Positive

I am not a fan of Norton Anti-Virus. My opinion is that company is more about selling software than making an excellent product. Whatever the case, Lance has posted a new article on the Dolphin Viewer blog.

It seems Norton AV is detecting Dolphin Viewer 3′s slplugin.exe as a possible virus. Lance has explained what he has done to check that a virus has not snuck into any of his systems or the viewer files.

The latest Dolphin Viewer is not setting off my ESET/NOD32.

    The latest Firestorm version is just out, and there are reports of Norton also triggering on the slplugin.exe included with that.

    Two different new viewers showing the same symptoms? And I don’t see anything of this with Avast AV (updated earlier this week). There’s a pattern here, and the common factor is Norton.
