Before using
Use it only as part of software obtained from the developer's official site or another source you independently trust.
If you already used it
Keep normal device protection enabled and stop if the file behaves unexpectedly.
Intelligence
The saved assessment, checked against the scan evidence and recorded coverage.
The reasoning behind this verdict
This section explains the evidence supporting the verdict and keeps conflicting or missing signals visible.
Only one low-trust engine flagged the file; all tier-1 engines remained silent. The DLL shows no malicious sandbox behaviour and has a medium-prevalence history spanning seven years.
The single detection originates from Cynet, a low-trust engine, while 17 tier-1 engines reported the file clean. No sandbox verdict indicated malice, no domains were contacted, and external-intel sources returned no hits. The file's 2530-day submission history and medium prevalence further support a benign classification.
What We Detected
One low-trust engine (Cynet) assigned a generic malicious score; 67 engines returned undetected and 17 tier-1 engines reported clean. The DLL is unsigned and exhibits only ambient behaviour in its single sandbox run.
Threat Behavior
No offensive MITRE techniques, no complete contacted-host reputation result was available contacted, and no dropped children. External intelligence sources (CIRCL, MalwareBazaar, YARAify) contain no matching records.
What To Do Now
The file can be considered safe for normal use. Keep endpoint protection enabled and monitor for any future changes in detection status.
- 17 tier-1 engines reported clean
- medium prevalence over 2530 days
- no sandbox malice or external-intel hits
No action required; the evidence indicates the DLL is benign.
