New Electrum 3.3.5 flagged by Malwarebytes

[codehtcmail]

Hello,

After I got Electrum 3.3.5 from https://electrum.org/#download Malwarebytes won't let me install it:

Anyone else have this problem ?

Electrum is known from having false-positives. If you downloaded from the right website, then that’s nothing.

Verify your Electrum signature by following this guide: https://bitcoinelectrum.com/how-to-verify-your-electrum-download/

If it returns valid, you are good to go.

Again? This has been reported multiple times with different versions:

• Question to the developer - is the new 3.3.3 version safe?
• Windows Security reports Electrum installer infected
• Old Topic Trojan in Electrum 3.0.0 wallet?

To properly install it,
you can just make an exception to the installer and installation directory or download the stand-alone (not portable) and make an exemption to the executable file.
