VrayMayaSpawner Win64:Evo-gen (rootkit) suspected malware

[ignuf]

Hey guys,

my antivirus software keeps bringing up a warning dialog box saying "suspicious hidden object (rootkit) had been detected on system", is this a valid file/part of your program ??

file name : SVC:VRayMayaSpawner 2014>C:\...\vraymayaspawner2014.exe rootkit name : Win64:Evo-gen[Susp]

i'm using VRay 2.4 , Maya 2015 , Maya 2014, on PC workstation ,win 7

thanks and regards

vraymayaspawner has nothing exotic in it, but antivirus heuristics achieve new highs it seems...

My guess is that it detects that there is a process respawning, which is something common for malware.
