You downloaded from an other source, not from the original site or its just a false alert by 360 Total Security

But it is pretty safe. Title: Re: ! Red Alert ! Litecoin Core 0.13.2 for Windows Have Trojan Virus Post by: Spoetnik on March 08, 2017, 09:41:06 AM This again ? :D

Miners have been bundled in Malware before. Hell some Torrent programs did this to their users with an update before. So.. It means out in the wild there are miners tacked onto things. Are miners a virus ? no. But you could get infected with one.. And.. most wallets have a built in miner ! Hence the alerts.. Wallets & Miners have always gotten a lot of false positive hits on AV programs. Consider it as a possible warning and no so much a confirmed virus type thing. The AV programs are trying to WARN users sometimes. If we install the wallet and turn on mining then it's fine. But if my Grandma had a miner on her PC then she would benefit from a warning about it. Title: Re: ! Red Alert ! Litecoin Core 0.13.2 for Windows Have Trojan Virus Post by: animalroam on March 11, 2017, 07:08:27 PM If you downloaded it from the official Litecoin site, it should just be a false positive. If you're still unsure, try running it in a sandbox to detect any suspicious activity.

Red Alert ! Litecoin Core 0.13.2 for Windows Have Trojan Virus Post by: Spoetnik on March 12, 2017, 02:25:13 AM You can upload it to VirusTotal and then look for feedback comments from the public too.
I'd do it now and post what it says but i have not had a wallet for 2 years roughly. EDIT: Watch out though.. sometimes it does happen. I have seen coins launched with a virus in the wallet and later with an update too (by a famous dev) Title: Re: ! Red Alert !
