Safe
Zero detections from 74 engines, unsigned DLL with only one isolated direct-IP heuristic.
83b7d26fd768e8f774…3554eeb3f7The reasoning behind this verdict
This section explains the evidence supporting the verdict and keeps conflicting or missing signals visible.
The complete absence of malicious engine detections across 74 scanners, including 17 tier-1 engines, is the dominant signal. The file remains unsigned and carries no signer history, yet the medium prevalence (71 sources) and explicit clean researcher annotation reduce the likelihood of a novel threat. Sandbox behaviour shows only ambient techniques and no malicious verdict. The single DirectIpC2 heuristic is noted but outweighed by the total lack of corroborating malicious indicators from engines, external intel, or dropped children.
All 74 engines returned clean results with no tier-1 or low-trust malicious flags. The file is an unsigned Win32 DLL that triggered a single medium-severity heuristic for contacting one IP address without DNS. Medium prevalence and clean community annotation support a safe classification.
What We Detected
74 engines scanned the 18 944-byte Win32 DLL; none flagged it malicious or suspicious. The sample is unsigned and has no code-signing history. Sandbox execution recorded four ambient MITRE techniques and one direct-IP contact (162.159.36.2) that triggered the DirectIpC2 heuristic.
Threat Behavior
No offensive techniques, no malicious sandbox verdict, no contacted domains, and no dropped malicious children. External intelligence sources (CIRCL, MalwareBazaar, YARAify) returned zero hits. A researcher comment explicitly labels the file clean with score 0/100.
What To Do Now
The file can be treated as low-risk for most environments. If the DLL is required, run it in a controlled test environment and monitor for unexpected outbound connections to 162.159.36.2.
The strongest scan facts behind the verdict, preserved with their exact names and counts.
0 of 74 antivirus engines flagged the file.
The hash has been submitted 88 times from 71 sources.
- 0/74 engines malicious
- Medium prevalence across 71 sources
- Clean researcher annotation
- No malicious sandbox verdict
- Unsigned DLL
- Direct-IP contact without DNS (162.159.36.2)
Proceed with normal caution; the file shows no malicious indicators from engines or sandbox analysis.

YARA & heuristic rule matches
One or more medium-severity heuristic rules matched. Not definitive, but the patterns match known malware behaviour.
Sample contacted 1 external IP address(es) and zero domains. Benign software virtually always uses DNS; no-DNS direct-IP C2 is a strong malware indicator because it bypasses reputation systems and dodges domain-based blocklists.

Section entropy & packers
No high-entropy executable section or known packer signature was detected. Data and resource sections can still have high entropy without indicating packed code.
How widely this file has been seen
Moderate prevalence — neither rare nor common. No strong prior applies.

Safety FAQ
Common questions about TooMuchInfo.dll, answered from the scan data above.
- TooMuchInfo.dll appears safe. 74 of 74 antivirus engines report it clean. As a habit, only run files you downloaded from the official source, since attackers sometimes distribute trojanised copies of legitimate software under the same name.
- TooMuchInfo.dll is a Windows executable program, about 19 KB. Our analysis found no threat indicators for it. A file's name can be reused by different files, so we identify it by its cryptographic hash (below).
- None — all 74 antivirus engines we queried report TooMuchInfo.dll as clean. That's reassuring, though brand-new malware can briefly evade detection before vendors add signatures, so we also weigh the file's behaviour and reputation.
- The SHA-256 hash of TooMuchInfo.dll is 83b7d26fd768e8f7742eaa9dfd5705c35b1e0b329100ce740ad96b3554eeb3f7, and its MD5 is e1e0b52725cac519886f9c1c5cb90c42. This hash is the file's unique fingerprint — two files with the same SHA-256 are identical. Use it to confirm you're looking at exactly this file (not just one with the same name) when comparing against antivirus databases or a download's published checksum.
- Based on this scan, yes — TooMuchInfo.dll shows no threat indicators. The important caveat is source: make sure you downloaded it from the official website or a trusted store, because attackers sometimes distribute malware-laced copies under a legitimate file's name. If your own antivirus flags it while we report it clean, that is most often a false positive, but verify the source before overriding your antivirus.
- This report reflects the scan run on July 22, 2026. Because a file's hash never changes, the identity of TooMuchInfo.dll is fixed — but antivirus coverage improves over time, so a file that looks clean today can pick up detections later (and vice-versa). If you need the latest picture, MalwareTips staff can re-run the analysis from scratch.
