Summary
There is no virus known to F-Secure anti-virus products by this name. However, there is a well-known false positive on 'Readiosys' by Intels and Trends antivirus products on some boot sectors - usually these boot sectors have been slightly corrupted by Anticmos virus but are not actually infected.
If F-Secure anti-virus products don't complain about 'Radiosys-infected' boot sectors, ignore the warning and get an update to your Intel/Trend scanner. You can 'fix' the boot sectors and get rid of the false alarm by running F-Secure's FIXBOOT to the floppy.
Removal
Based on the settings of your F-Secure security product, it will either move the file to the quarantine where it cannot spread or cause harm, or remove it.
A False Positive is when a file is incorrectly detected as harmful, usually because its code or behavior resembles known harmful programs. A False Positive will usually be fixed in a subsequent database update without any action needed on your part. If you wish, you may also:
- Check for the latest database updates
First check if your F-Secure security program is using the latest updates, then try scanning the file again.
- Submit a sample
After checking, if you still believe the file is incorrectly detected, you can submit a sample of it for re-analysis.
Note: If the file was moved to quarantine, you need to collect the file from quarantine before you can submit it.
- Exclude a file from further scanning
If you are certain that the file is safe and want to continue using it, you can exclude it from further scanning by the F-Secure security product.
Note: You need administrative rights to change the settings.
