I’ve been using JV16 powertools for a few years. They have just come out with their 2011 version. Although the installation went well, when I tried to open the program I got a Defense+ alert stating that:
“jv16PT.exe tried to execute shellcode as a result of a possible buffer overflow attack”.
MaceCraft states to exclude this program from any AV as it may report such an attack. Also excluding it will permit JV16 to function properly.
I use this software myself and it is a FP.
Hi,
The samples <jv16pt_setup_hb.exe> (SHA1: )
u submitted as false-positive is not detected by Comodo Internet Security version <5.3.176757.1236> with database version <7737>. Please make sure the Antivirus database is updated and check again.

Hi,
This is to inform you that false-positive with
(SHA1: )
has been fixed.
You can update to AV database Version <7741> of Comodo Internet Security Version<5.3.176757.1236> and confirm it.
buffer overflow has nothing to do with the AV or D+. What is has to do is with the ■■■■■■ programming jv16 has done with their new version, they have to fix it. Comodo can’t do anything about it, the only thing you can do is add it to the buffer overflow exclusions.
