In the last few minutes I went to Google Play to install Spotify on my Android tablet.
Norton Mobile Security flagged Spotify as "HIgh Risk". It appears to demand acces to just about everything.
Given the amount of posts here regarding security issues I decided not to go ahead.
As a matter of interest I then tried Deezer, just to see Norton's security assessment for that. Norton returned "No Risk" for Deezer.
Needless to say, this hasn't exactly given me a sense of security in continuing to use Spotify on my PC, laptop, windows phone or PS3.
Sometimes antivirus companies release bad so called "virus signature update" or whatever it was called and it will cause some weird false alarms. In the past I think it was Avast which flagged my Exporer.exe as a malmware which is quite odd because it is default built in file in Windows. But Avast did address that bug and asked people to manually whitelist that file.
So maybe that's the case now, you just need to whitelist Spotify and then ask F-Secure to release an update which will permanently fix this problem. It should be fixed as soon as they release a Signature update.
Hi Guys, I'm having the same issue and it's August, so don't think its a definitions issue. But I'm trying to address this directly with Spotify. I'll reply back if I get anywhere. I download Spotify on the playstore on 08/02/16.
If you are correct, Spotify owes us some reassurance to that effect. That is, state that they investigated why Norton is flagging spotify as a probable virus, and they are assuring us that it is a false alarm. I have not yet seen anything like this, have you?This, of course has some liability aspect if they hapen to be wrong.
