Title: Windows Malware and Trojan in Windows Wallets Post by: TimFChavez on December 27, 2013, 02:20:31 PM So I checked some of the windows wallets at http://www.virustotal.com and I see quite a few of them have either Malware or Trojan or both. Here is the list that I found and the Malware or Trojan they have.

Title: Re: Windows Malware and Trojan in Windows Wallets Post by: Ribhu on December 27, 2013, 02:40:43 PM Less alert! false positives are 1 in detection of 49 rising antivirus.
Source code can be checked and is clean. Antivirus good, do not detect malware. Executable to mine are always detected as a virus, and everyone this mining. So... no problem ! This is true https://cryptocointalk.com/topic/1760-warning-coins/ (https://cryptocointalk.com/topic/1760-warning-coins/) ;D Title: Re: Windows Malware and Trojan in Windows Wallets Post by: Nullu on December 27, 2013, 02:42:43 PM This is a bit alarmist. I just did a single scan against Dimecoin-qt.exe;
Detection ratio: 1 / 48 That's pretty low. Could easily be a false positive. Handy site link though. Danke. Title: Re: Windows Malware and Trojan in Windows Wallets Post by: Hazard on December 27, 2013, 02:46:58 PM Hey knucklehead, ever hear of false positives?

Title: Re: Windows Malware and Trojan in Windows Wallets Post by: TimFChavez on December 27, 2013, 02:58:43 PM they're probably all false positives. scanned with eset, all is good OK. Just checking. Thanks Tim Title: Re: Windows Malware and Trojan in Windows Wallets Post by: Tripmode on December 27, 2013, 03:43:25 PM A lot of things these programs are installed without people's knowledge on their PCs to mine, that is why they are sometimes considered "malware". You can view the source and compile yourself if you want to be sure it is clean.
I am in IT and I have seen many of that flagged by antivirus software. Even coin based websites can be blocked by corporate content filters. No need to be alarmed. Title: Re: Windows Malware and Trojan in Windows Wallets Post by: LiteMine on December 27, 2013, 03:45:55 PM noobs gonna noob

Tim Where are the links to the results ? My FTC QT is showing the normal botnet/ false ID and not what you are claiming. https://www.virustotal.com/en/file/125a8497012bd3a90b1bcfa2b51ff8b5ac85e19c5d68e377046390e4ff4008e0/analysis/ |
