ChunkVNC 3.2 Released!

I just checked it on a clean Windows 7 installation (Spanish) with the AVG 2011 30 trial and it took it for a virus:

Which version of ChunkVNC?

The latest release of AVG 2011 works for me without issues using 3.2 of ChunkVNC

I am using ChuckVNC 3.2 (compile without modifications).
I guess that the DB changes take a while to propagate, it is the AVG 2011 Spanish version.
I will try tomorrow to setup a English version and try AVG 2011 and Norton.

In any case, I did contact AVG and ask to review this.

It was only just this morning that the problem went away for me so possibly there is a propagation delay involved. It is working without issue for me at the moment.

I have a question about the new encryption system.
If the old plugin MSRC4 needed a key on a PC client and PC server
now I can not understand how the encryption?
For example I have 10 PC, I create all InstantSupport and subscribe to them need to be different from that PC to connect I need to copy? (Before I copied the key rc4.key)
or encrypted connection is now only by the server as part ChunkViewer the same?
I'm confused

@vdpp, @JonD
The virus DB version is the same for all AVG and not published by country (the auto update I mean).
With the update of today morning (426/3288) the issue continue. Let's se if the AVG Brazil take me a solution (I sent a message yesterday).

Nick_ua,

In 3.2 I stopped using preshared keys, it's simply using the new SecureVNC encryption plugin configured with a password.

@supercoe
Just to know... is possible to disable the security (including the password) without code change in 3.2? Sorry if it's a repeted question.

We should start a new thread for this topic...

You're right... the 3.2 version still triggers AVG 2011. I've made some changes to the source code (for other reasons) and for some reason my modified version does not trigger AVG 2011.

I'll see if I can find the piece of code that triggers the issue.

However, it's really up to AVG to create a proper fix.

maxabbr,

Not possible without a simple code change.

SRC\ChunkViewer.au3
LINE: 135
Change:

Code: Select all

ShellExecute( @ScriptDir & "\Bin\vncviewer.exe", "-proxy " & $RepeaterAddress & " ID:" & $IDNumber & " -quickoption " & $Quality & " -keepalive 1 -dsmplugin SecureVNCPlugin.dsm" )

To:

Code: Select all

ShellExecute( @ScriptDir & "\Bin\vncviewer.exe", "-proxy " & $RepeaterAddress & " ID:" & $IDNumber & " -quickoption " & $Quality & " -keepalive 1 -dsmplugin SecureVNCPlugin.dsm -password YOURPASSWORDHERE" )

By replacing YOURPASSWORDHERE with your password you will be forcing the viewer to always use the set password.

I might make this a feature as I like the idea.

Don't forget to compile after editing the source files.
