Errorsmart 2009 Install And Trojan.generic.1315217

ErrorSmart 2009 is a well known utility to maintain windows system. When I install with bitdefender ON it gives me in one of the modules (RegCleaner.dll) the presence of Trojan.Generic.1315217 and it deletes it.


To overcome this issue I exclude from analysis the folder where errorsmart is installed.


Is this OK?


Am I sure?

  • Hi,


    ErrorSmart 2009 is a well known utility to maintain windows system
    As a matter of fact, there's a good reason Bitdefender detects some components from Errorsmart as infected.


    Errorsmart is one of these so called Registry cleaners (Rogue) that brings up a ton of false positives and forces you to buy the program in order to fix the so called registry errors. It's scam and not recommended at all :)

    Indeed this is the case with Errorsmart 2009. Detectin will not be removed.
