ESET Internet Security didn’t detect a virus.

I think Rast Sound is relatively trustable, so it should be false positive.

I would tend to agree. We have a software engineer in the community, @jorge I would love to get your expert opinion on this. I believe there are certain hoops that Windows program authors have to jump through and that may be the reason for getting this false positive.  But my expertise isn’t software, yours is, and it’d be valuable to get your insight on this.

Your friend who keeps the beat. I suppose I’m also the chef at this place.

Thanks Peter

When it comes to security issues, I like to be cautious.

I have downloaded the Windows file and I have examined it with the tool I have at my hands, and I haven’t recevied any warning or alert about it.

I have uploaded the file to Virus Total to examine the file, and only one of 72 vendors, has detected an alert about it.

The alert of one of all 72 vendors, does not mean that contains a virus.

But here some comments about this:
– Depending of the algorith used by the vendor and other technical process inside, could detects false alerts.
– If there is a virus inside, is strange that only one antivirus detects it.

Here the report from Virus Total:

After this, I have sent the file to kaspersky as well.
And in this case, with one suspicius activity with a low impact.

Here the report from kaspersky:

Honestly, I don’t think there is a high threat, but you have to be careful.

Sometimes the virus is not in the program itself, but in the installer, which was created with an infected computer.
The ideal is to always generate the binary files that you are going to run on a machine in an isolated environment.

In this case, everything “seems” to be fine. But I remain cautious because the ideal is that all virus and malware analyses have zero alerts/risks.
