Friends I need your help a little bit. A few days ago I launched the utility Dr.Web Cureit and she removed the Intertops Poker software with a disk D and with the drive C. I certainly subsequently added Intertops Poker client program in the list of exceptions and restored from the quarantine of the utility Dr.Web Cureit. Nevertheless, this incident greatly upset me. Friends can anyone of you know on the forum what is the reason of this curious case. :confused::confused::confused:

This has happened to me before, some poker clients show up as viruses. I just ignore it.

So it turns out it is imaginary and not a dangerous threat to computer virus infection or is still some sort of a threat from the intertops Poker software has a place in this case.

It is probably a problem with the SSL connection of the application, the same happens in DuckPoker.
Or it may be a false positive, the application is sending information through encrypted / secure means and it may have been detected as a threat.

Try to check the files using various antivirus, a good site for this is VirusTotal.

Thank course for the advice I will definitely try this site but still Dr.Web CureIt utility is considered one of the best in the field of scanning for viruses.

There are several types of "pseudo-malware" programs which are often misjudged by antivirus programs like for example registry cleaners.

I didnt have any problem with Poker software so far but I never used Intertops Poker.

If adding the program to exceptions isnt working out the way you want it, you should contact the Customer Support of your antivirus software.

pseudo malware is at an all time high. This is a problem that if the federal government legalized poker they could attack with ease. However the federal government doesnt realize a heavily taxed poker site could rake in money
