Virus in 4.2.6 installer #134

Closed marekbohdan closed 2 years ago

marekbohdan commented 3 years ago

Hi! When downloading the installer of version 4.2.6, the antivirus reports to me the existence of Win32/FormBook.AVP! MTB virus. Both the x86 and x64 versions. What's the problem?

I’m pretty certain it is a false positive – submit the installer to your AV provider to confirm. I’ve had this sort of issue reported before where the problem was simply that the AV hadn’t seen that installer before. No actual infections found.

What AV are you using?

I'm using Windows Defender (Windows 10).

Windows Defender says it is clean, as does MalwareBytes.
