Virustotal Scan Detects Software as Containing Malware? #156

Open raffylopez opened 7 years ago

raffylopez commented 7 years ago

One of the 61 aggregated scanners at virustotal detects the zipped binary as 'Trojan.Dropper'. Could be a false-positive?

@limeblack It could be generally safe. UPX-packaged software can be flagged by some malware scanners, so if there's a good majority consensus among other scanners, there's a good chance it's a false positive.
