F-Secure has blocked my VectorWorks2015 plug-in design programm because of the virus. Can this program file be cleaned and removed from the block? I have no way to get it downloaded again, because it was originally delivered to me through a download-link, and the firm that delivered the software to me will not support me. Is there anything to be done?

    Hi @VW84,

    Thank you for contacting F-Secure Community.

    We understand how frustrating it can be when an important application or plug-in is blocked, especially when you no longer have access to the original download source.

    If F-Secure has detected the VectorWorks 2015 plug-in file as malware, this means the file matches known threat indicators or behaves in a way that is considered unsafe. We would recommend for you to submit the file for analysis.

    You may submit the blocked file to F-Secure for further review via our malware sample submission service. If our labs confirm it is a false positive, the detection can be corrected in future updates. Please use this link : https://www.f-secure.com/en/support/submit-a-sample

    Thank you.

    Hi!

    Thank You for your answer.

    Here´s what happened: I tried to download 7zip to create a encrypted file to send. However, I did not manage to encrypt the file, because the encrypting task never ended. So I thougt, that have by mistake downloaded a wrong version of 7zip, and so I tried to remove the app, but that I could not do. I got an announce, that a file is opened somewhere and the task can not be done. So now I got two troubles instead of one. The file I coud not delete was 7-zip.dll.

    So what next?
