Does Lattice Diamond Design Software installation files contain Bloodhound.Sonar.9 virus?

No. Lattice Diamond Design Software installation files does not contain any virus.

In some cases, users with Symantec products will encounter a false positive for Bloodhound.Sonar.9 when running the Windows installer. This is not an actual virus signature, but rather a heuristic which is triggering incorrectly. With default settings, Symantec Endpoint Protection will not allow the DME PoP installation to proceed; the installer will abort with the message Configuration Failed.

Workaround: Open Symantec Endpoint Protection, and click Change Settings on the left. Under Proactive Threat Protection, click Configure Settings, and under Sonar, enable the check box Prompt Before Terminating a Process.
