    I upgraded this morning to Version 11.2.1 (32626) and now my anti-virus (Kaspersky) is reporting an issue (popup every few mins) that this printingtool.dll is a risk item. Has anyone else seen this?
    Thanks

    Hello Jamesk4,
    Parallels Tools provide very deep integration of Windows virtual machine with host OS X (clipboard/keyboard layout synchronization, Shared Folders etc.), and some AV software may detect Parallels Tools components as a virus. Please do not worry, there is no real virus infection. We would appreciate if you file a report to AV software manufacturer with the fact of suspecting Parallels Tools Components with malware activity.
