  • 1.  acad.exe (w32.mabezat.b) this threat has been removed

    Posted Aug 29, 2011 05:15 PM

    Looks as if Norton 360 sees my acad.exe file as the w32.mabezat.b virus.  I have run a complete scan and even had norton clean up my registry file.  Before doing that I uninstalled my autocad programs.  I finaly got my Autocad to open but then Norton isolated my acad.exe file again and now I cannot open AutoCad again. Please anyone advise.

    Thank you.

    Hi Penny,

     

    There was an issue with w32.mabezat.b false positives last week. That issue was addressed with definitions released Friday evening (8/26). Make sure you have the latest definition set. You should be able to go into your Norton risk log and "undo action taken" on the acad.exe file.

    Let me know how it goes for you.

    Regards,

    Thomas

    P.S. In the future you should post Norton issues in the Norton community. There are many more Norton experts there to help you.
