Virus notice when downloading software

Postby Scooterlady » Tue Nov 18, 2008 3:56 am

:?: I tried to download "Bulk Rename Utility, Build 2.7.0.4" & my Zonealarm is giving me a virus warning:

Trojan-Dropper.Win32.Agent.zqn

Zonealarm is not the best, and gives nearly as many false-positives as AVG. I can assure you there's no virus - not if you downloaded it from this site anyway.

Hi folks,

Kaspersky Internet Security v7.0.1.325.c.d.e is one of the best AV products on the market, and also identifies the same Trojan-dropper.Win32.Agent.zqn. I have opened a case with Kaspersky to verify if this is a false positive, which I suspect it is. The installer was downloaded from this site.

You might want to contact Kaspersky to sort this out from the developers end.

Cheers

Just install BRU v2.7.11 and it does not have this issue.

W32/FakeAV2008E (exact)
is what F-Prot is showing for Bulk Rename Utility - Build 2-7-1-1. Must be in the latest def files for F-Prot, as I have had the files since Dec3. There was no warning then. Just tried downloading again, F-Prot won't let me. The Zip no instal version is clean though. Love the utility BRU, saves me hours if not days.
