Upload to virus total, passing one scanner isn't enough.
- Vindicis 10y agoI did that, and, it seems that although it fails some virus scanners, it would be what I like to call a false positive. Just to link a description of what one of them found: https://www.symantec.com/security_response/writeup.jsp?docid=2014-071815-0057-99&tabid=2 https://www.symantec.com/security_response/writeup.jsp?docid... Basically it could be an unwanted application that "The application reports an exaggerated number of problems." Shitty software? Sure. Malware? Not to me. YMMV. Here's a screen shot of the ones it failed from that total scanner: https://i.imgur.com/vwy9sXY.jpg https://i.imgur.com/vwy9sXY.jpg

- 59nadir 10y agoIt's funny that you mention axes to grind (hidden motives). It's exactly what I think when I read the apologist threads/posts like yours. To look at obviously shady behavior and start giving excuses for it just reeks of misguided fanboyism. If this were a bigger entity I'd assume you were all corporate astroturfers.
- anc84 10y agoVirus Total is not a one-way stop. It only does some detection, not comparable to actually executing the malware itself. No results do not mean clean!
