False Antivirus Report #1192

Open GhostLone93 opened 2 years ago

GhostLone93 commented 2 years ago

Describe the bug False Antivirus Report. Comodo says that exe file contains TrojWare.Win32.Krap.T@101925166

Environment Extracting program by winrar to folder.

To Reproduce anti-virus and extracting program to folder.

Additional information I know you wouldnt put any virus in program. Its just my paranoia. Could you just confirm for me why Comodo Antivirus would see NMM as virus?

Also i love so much more NMM then Vorex. As old user I can say that chaning to Vortex was and is biggest Nexus mistake.

Each time a new version is released a few antivirus suites may end up reporting NMM as a possible virus just based on reputation and userbase. This happens because of the scripted installers system that uses script injection to work.
