I want to report a "false positive" alert on the file: LockPDFu.dll

Ad-aware identified this as a potentially malicious virus but this file is part of the PDFownerGuard software that is used to secure PDF's. I would ask that you contact Armjisoft.com, the makers of the software. You can contact their tech support at: support@armjisoft.com

I am concerned about this because I own Forel Publishing Company, LLC and we secure our PDF's with PDF OwnerGuard. If users scan their systems with Ad-Aware and then remove this file, their PDF's will not open properly. Then, I get tech support calls.

Please contact Armjisoft.com to validate and then modify your software so it does NOT alert on this file.

Thank you very much.

Sincerely,
David LeBlanc

Hello David,

This is a heuristic detection and the file is not actually removed by Ad-Aware. We will further review this.

Thanks and regards,
Dave
