I use Bitdefender antivirus software. This has blocked extracting the application with message saying there is a generic trojan. Please advise

Eugenius73094 commented 6 years ago

Specifically message from Bitdefender states "Threat name: Trojan.Generic 22292679"

I'm using Eset Antivirus here, and it doesn't complain. It's probably a false alarm related to this: https://www.welivesecurity.com/2017/09/28/monero-money-mining-malware/

HI guys Im having serious issues with Mcafee and getting thw GUI wallet to download without turning off my AV For Mcafee to investigate it they need the file compressing and they can then look to whitelist it

Is there any other way around this surely there is a much simpler way around this as the GUI wallet is useless if we cannot download a version of it
