Delete Branch "%!s()"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?
Hi there,
My antivirus was blocking the latest zip file due to the following file:
Trojan:Script/Sabsik.FL.A!ml
I've deleted the zip file and haven't installed 1.9.13 as a result
It's not uncommon to have AV suites falsely flag new versions of OF-DL.
What AV suite flagged it?
For me, it was both Windows Defender and NordVPN's Threat Protection
Strange. It comes up clean here on my local Windows machine. And VirusTotal is not showing any hits on anyone's AV scanner.
The SHA1 hash on the main executable is
05c6b85c8356e6fedb8e074991ea9f77b57d0b57. So long as that matches, then I have to assume this is a false positive based on heuristics.Same problem here with Norton 360.
It detects "IDP.Generic.632f0bf603ef.3.2"
I had the same issue with some ealier versions of OF-DL too.
False positives happen frequently, particularly since ofdl.exe controls ffmpeg.exe which seems suspicious to some antivirus software. The code is public and the builds are fully automated and the build logs public, so there's very little cause for concern.
