Why Suspicious? 2 antivirus engines flag it; nothing else confirms it.
Limited evidence · One sign points to a problem; nothing else confirms it.
If it came from a link, an attachment or a stranger, delete it.
What to do now4 steps
Some signs point to a problem, but nothing confirms it is harmful. Treat it with caution.
What to do
Don't open or extract it unless you're sure where it came from.
Check where you got it: an unexpected attachment, a link someone sent you or a re-upload is a red flag.
If you can't confirm where it came from, delete it. If you need the program, download it again from the publisher's own website.
If you already opened or extracted it
Stop using it, run a full scan with your antivirus and watch for unexpected behavior or security alerts.

Why we think so
5 points against it and 5 in its favour, checked against the scan evidence.
The reasoning behind this verdict
TrendMicro-HouseCall and VBA32 flag the archive, but their labels do not form a strong family consensus. With no completed sandbox run, no malicious child verdict, and no external research match, the evidence warrants caution rather than a definitive malware-family attribution.
Two of the 57 antivirus engines that checked it flagged the ZIP, and the detections represent two independent products. TrendMicro-HouseCall supplies the stronger signal, but its TL0101HD26ZU label is generic and has no major consensus; VBA32's Exxroute label comes from a less reliable engine. Twelve major antivirus engines reported no detection, while several others timed out, so the antivirus picture is mixed. No completed sandbox observation is available, meaning the recorded registry entries cannot be reliably attributed to executed sample behavior. External research sources did not corroborate the labels, and no complete contacted-host reputation result is available. These factors leave a meaningful risk signal without enough evidence for a definitive family determination.
What We Detected
Two of the 57 antivirus engines that checked it flagged the ZIP. TrendMicro-HouseCall identified a generic Windows trojan label, TL0101HD26ZU, while VBA32 used an Exxroute ransomware-oriented label. Only one major antivirus engine supports the named family, so the labels do not establish consensus.
Threat Behavior
No malicious file it created was identified, and no complete host-reputation check is available. MalwareBazaar and YARAify also supplied no independent family corroboration.
What To Do Now
Do not extract or open the archive on a production device unless its source and expected contents can be verified. Keep security software enabled, rescan after updating security signatures, and inspect extracted files individually in an isolated environment if analysis is necessary.
Where this verdict could be wrong2 caveats
- The archive has been submitted 887 times by 764 sources, which is less consistent with a narrowly distributed new threat.
- MalwareBazaar and YARAify produced no corroborating hit, although coverage gaps can still miss malware.
These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.
- Only two of the 57 antivirus engines that checked it reported a detection.
- Twelve major antivirus engines reported no detection.
- No strong agreement exists among major antivirus engines on a malware family.
- No external researcher-rule or malware-repository match corroborated the detections.
- The file has broad submission history rather than extremely limited circulation.
- Two independent antivirus products flag the archive.
- One major antivirus engine reports a generic Windows trojan detection.
- A second engine applies an Exxroute ransomware-oriented label.
- No completed the test run is available to resolve the conflicting evidence.
- The archive's publisher identity cannot be validated through code signing.
