It was some book, and when submitting the download link, 3 of the antivirus results were red. Perhaps they were false positives.

- lucb1e 6y agoAnti-Virus tools have been flagging keygens and cracks for ages, and also hacking tools that grab passwords from (system) stores even if the tools have absolutely nothing in their code that talks to a server (I only ever used those for legal purposes, but can't tell you how often I had to disable an annoying AV...). Just because the AV says something is malware doesn't mean you can trust its claim. From my perspective, they've undermined their trustworthiness in the area where you are indeed most likely to rely on an AV. I'm not surprised they're now flagging what is basically text and images as malware.
