BOClean flags mIRC.exe as trojan!

[PiCo]

mIRC is version 6.2.0.0
BOClean is version 4.26 of course

So this is my first BOClean alert
Unfortunately a false positive

Can this be corrected?

PS: I uploaded the file here in case you can’t find a mIRC 6.2.0.0 version (it’s quite old)

Also in the CBOC FAQ.

Thanx for the quick reply!

There seems to be a bug with BOClean excluder under Vista.
I exclude mIRC.exe, but this isn’t enough. Everytime BOClead restarts it changes the BOC426.INI file and places this line at the end of Prefs:
hung=

When I open mIRC.exe I still get the trojan alert. If I then open BOClean excluder and just press on “DONE”, the INI file is changed again, the hung= is gone and I am able to run mIRC.exe.

So this hang= under Prefs is causing BOClean excluder not being able to “remember” an excluded item after every restart. I have to open the excluder and press “DONE” everytime.

Did you understand me or have I confused you? Can you confirm this?

I don’t use BOC so I can’t confirm, but according to FAQ, Kevin’s response:

@Kevin McAleavey post:2

open BOClean’s excluder and drag the icon for it to the excluder box (if you’re not using Vista, you can drag a shortcut) and once it appears in there, close the excluder, close BOClean and restart it so it will pick up the fact that you want MIRC ignored and BOClean will leave you alone. Should another copy show up somewhere that you don’t know about it, BOClean will let you know.

(I bolded instructions)

Yup I followed those instructions, allthough they’re for 4.25v not 4.26, but that doesn’t really matter.

The issue is specific: Everytime I restart BOClean, hungs= appears in the BOC426.INI file under Prefs, which is the source of the problem.
If I open the excluder, I can see mIRC.exe, I press DONE, hungs= disappears and I can then start mIRC without an alert.

hungs= is the problem.

edit://omg I can’t understand this:
(1)I restart BOClean => mIRC.exe still flagged as trojan
(2)I restart BOClean and right click tray icon->close this menu => mIRC.exe works!

right click tray icon->close this menu forces BOC426.exe to modify the BOC426.ini file and then mIRC.exe works!

Shouldn’t this be done automatically at every startup?
