Verdict Safe
Is Amazing Frog. exe safe? Yes, no threats found.
Only VBA32 flagged the executable, while major antivirus engines and one completed sandbox run supplied no corroborating malware evidence.

Moderate evidence · No engine flags it, but no publisher signature confirms who made it.
Good practice2 tips
We found nothing harmful in this file.
Run it only if it came from the developer's own website or an official app store.
Keep your antivirus and Windows updates switched on.
No scanner can promise a file is 100% safe.

Why we think so
4 points against it and 5 in its favour, checked against the scan evidence.
The reasoning behind this verdict
One of the 67 antivirus engines that checked it flagged the file, and that detection came from the less reliable VBA32 engine with a generic Wacatac label. Major antivirus engines were silent, and one sandbox run observed no offensive behavior, persistence, dropped files, injection, or network activity attributable to the sample.
The detection pattern strongly resembles an isolated false positive: VBA32 alone flagged the sample, while no major antivirus engines did. One completed sandbox run returned a clean result and mapped no offensive techniques. It also observed no process injection, persistence, dropped files, or sample-attributed network contacts. MalwareBazaar and YARAify supplied no corroborating family evidence, and the antivirus analysis found no packing indicators. Confidence is moderated because the executable is unsigned, uncommon, and lacks publisher history; additionally, no complete contacted-host reputation result is available.
What We Detected
Only 1 of the 67 antivirus engines that checked it flagged the executable. The sole alert came from VBA32 and used the generic label “Trojan.Wacatac”; no major antivirus engines reported a detection and no family consensus formed.
Threat Behavior
One completed sandbox run returned a clean result. It observed no offensive techniques, process injection, persistence changes, dropped files, or network contacts attributable to the sample. The antivirus analysis also found no packer or high-entropy code indicator. A complete contacted-host reputation check was not available, although the run recorded no sample-attributed contacts to inspect.
What To Do Now
The evidence supports treating the isolated alert as a likely false positive. Because the executable is unsigned and has limited prevalence, obtain it only from its expected source, keep security software enabled, and verify the SHA-256 before running it.
Where this verdict could be wrong3 caveats
- The executable is unsigned, so no publisher identity or certificate history supports it.
- Only three submitters have supplied this file, limiting reputation evidence.
- VBA32 labeled it “Trojan.Wacatac,” although no other engine corroborated that generic detection.
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 1 of the 67 antivirus engines that checked it flagged the file, and the alert came from a less reliable engine.
- No major antivirus engines reported a detection.
- One completed sandbox run found no offensive behavior, injection, persistence, dropped files, or sample-attributed network activity.
- MalwareBazaar and YARAify supplied no corroborating malware intelligence.
- The antivirus analysis found no packing or high-entropy code indicators.
- The Windows executable is unsigned and has no established publisher history.
- The file has been submitted by only three sources, so its broader reputation is limited.
- VBA32 reported a generic Wacatac trojan detection.
- No complete contacted-host reputation cross-check is available.
