Avira detects coat.dll as a problem, I submitted this to Avira thinking it’s just a false positive, they beg to differ that it’s not and that it’s considered a Security Privacy Risk (SPR).

Since Comodo is in the business of security I find it quite odd to have files being used considered Security Risks, so can we please get this fixed?

Here’s the letter from Avira regarding this…

THANKS

Dear Sir or Madam,

Thank you for your recent inquiry.

This is not a False Positive - it is a SPR and it can be (de)activated by the user.
