Great, just like Electrum,
but just like Electrum, that wont help most newbies since most of them prefer
download-install-open method.
Glad they have taken down the site that quick.
so it seems virus total failed to scan the file if we input the link directly, but they can scan it if we upload the files directly. i don't know if this is a bug or not but they should've fixed it already.
It isn't a bug, if you input a URL, it will scan the server of the URL, not the specified download file.
If you download and upload the file to Virus total (
like the image in the OP), it will scan the file using different antivirus engines.
If nothing was detected, the file doesn't have any malicious code even though it steals data, it might be programmed like any other software that can send and receive data to its server.
