My Bitdefender Security Virus Scanner blocked download the ../universe-xray_sources_v3_2_windows_intelx86.exe. It´s infected by virus: Trojan.GenericKD.2649361. Is this a false message? Normaly the scanner software works fine without false messages in the past. |

Try resetting the project. I know I saw that the other day and I think I just reset the project and it cleared. |

Al lot of the well-known scanner tells there is a problem. Look here: virustotal.com At the moment I can´t download the file. |

I'm very curious how the engines decide that is dangerous file as it not search anything on disk, not send anything to internet (manager does) etc... As far as I know from my practice this happened quite often with BOINC applications... Krzysztof 'krzyszp' Piszczek Member of Radioactive@Home project team My Patreon profile |

Some hosts (not mine) get this message : <message> app_version download error: couldn't get input files: <file_xfer_error> <file_name>universe-xray_sources_v3_2_windows_intelx86.exe</file_name> <error_code>-224 (permanent HTTP error)</error_code> <error_message>permanent HTTP error</error_message> </file_xfer_error> </message> The file is not missing in the download directory, so this might be a result of this false virus alert I guess (?) p.s.: the code tag doesn't do what it is supposed to, same for pre |

Those download errors I mentioned above - is it possible that the files are already rejected on a proxy server? In this case there would be hardly a chance to fix it, if the scanner on the proxy doesn't support whitelists. |

Yesterday I have published Windows 64bit application but I see that probably it is rejected by another false positive alarm on your hosts... Can somebody confirm this for me, please? Krzysztof 'krzyszp' Piszczek Member of Radioactive@Home project team My Patreon profile |
