win32:delf-hvn [trojan] in the installer … so should i install the software ?

post download URL here, please …

here it is :

hxxp://www.multidmedia.com/downloads/trial/Zinc_v2.5_Trial_Setup_2.5.0.33.exe

It would be better not posting a live link to malware/false positive.
Maybe just changing http to hxxp, for instance :wink:
Dr. Web couldn’t scan the file (maybe it’s too big ???).

There are 2 files falsely detected:

c:\False\new\Afterburner 01 [L] Win32:Delf-HVN [trj] (0)
c:\False\new\Contemporary 13 [L] Win32:MailPassView-E [Tool] (0)

Both FP will be fixed in VPS 080912-0

  1. Update.
  2. Right click the file (setup) and scan.
  3. If it is clean, go ahead :wink:
