Legit content gets flagged as malicious content

[dAb]

Is anyone seeing this? I can't reproduce it myself but I have users claiming their antivirus software freaks out upon downloading the mods.

The false positive is in regard to Trojan:Script/Foretype.A!ml

I have a user claiming the same thing here: https://forums.nexusmods.com/index.php?showtopic=4979520/&do=findComment&comment=64972461

 

This is even after the Nexus AV has declared it safe. Something may need to get looked into here.

Found other reports as well.

Seems to reliably happen with the new update on: https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/78/

To the extent of what I know, we've made no changes that would cause these alerts. More likely windows defender is suddenly reacting to something common between those particular files, like perhaps the 7zip version used when packaging or some such.

I've manually downloaded every file mentioned in the this thread, and extracted them to their own folders, and Kaspersky didn't complain once.

If I try to extract something Kaspersky doesn't like it lets me know, and prevents me from doing file operations in that particular folder.

I had it manually scan the archives and the extracted files.
Nothing on my end.

Could it be people are using FREE AVs that false trigger on EVERYTHING, and they have their settings too high?
Are some of these people the same ones who get the captcha at every login?

Windows Defender didn't have a problem with it on my end.

[BigBizkit]

This seems to have been an issue related to Windows Defender. Every file I was able to replicate the issue with, works just fine now. Please, do not hesitate to let us know if the issue persists.

@BigBizkit This issue persists. I get it with https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/90983?tab=files and have gotten it with other files for Skyrim Legenday Edition.
