Download warning / fail / trojan

Postby pmichaud » 17.06.2015, 16:37

When attempting a download of the program, I get this warning from my firewall:

This request is blocked by the Firewall Gateway Anti-Virus Service. Name: Bladabindi.AKX (Trojan)

Please advise.

Thanks.

Please see http://trac.wsusoffline.net/browser/tag ... aq-enu.txt (line 118):
Q: My antivirus package reports the downloaded archive to be infected by a virus/trojan? Is that true?
A: This is with very high probability a false positive! The archive contains compiled AutoIt3 scripts, which some antivirus programs generally detect as malware. You can verify the clean status of the scripts (*.au3) by compiling them yourself using the AutoIt3 compiler (http://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/). Alternatively, upload the downloaded archive to a site like VirusTotal (http://virustotal.com) or Jotti (http://virusscan.jotti.org) and let it be scanned by a multitude of antivirus engines. Additionally, many antivirus suites have the possibility to send the presumed false positives to the author, either manually over a web form/email or automatically within the program. This will improve detection abilities of these products.
