9b0e2441eb4b52c3ad…45d86662edThe reasoning behind this verdict
The MT AI Engine weighs every signal from this scan — antivirus detections, sandbox behaviour, code signing, prevalence and historical matches — to reach a single, evidence-based verdict.
The complete absence of malicious detections across tier-1, tier-2, and low-trust engines combined with the file's age and prevalence classification indicates a benign ebook. No signing, behaviour, or external intelligence signals contradict this assessment. Filename analysis shows no adversarial patterns or security-tool mimicry. The long submission history without any flagged incidents supports a safe classification.
Each signal cites a concrete token from the evidence the arbiter saw — engine name, MITRE technique, signer string, or an exact count.

Safety FAQ
Common questions about The Death of Ivan Ilyich and Other Stories (Leo Tolstoy, Anthony Briggs, David McDuff etc.) (z-library.sk, 1lib.sk, z-lib.sk).epub, answered from the scan data above.
- The Death of Ivan Ilyich and Other Stories (Leo Tolstoy, Anthony Briggs, David McDuff etc.) (z-library.sk, 1lib.sk, z-lib.sk).epub appears safe. 75 of 75 antivirus engines report it clean. As a habit, only open files you downloaded from the official source, since attackers sometimes distribute trojanised copies of legitimate software under the same name.
- The Death of Ivan Ilyich and Other Stories (Leo Tolstoy, Anthony Briggs, David McDuff etc.) (z-library.sk, 1lib.sk, z-lib.sk).epub is a file, about 341 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 75 antivirus engines we queried report The Death of Ivan Ilyich and Other Stories (Leo Tolstoy, Anthony Briggs, David McDuff etc.) (z-library.sk, 1lib.sk, z-lib.sk).epub 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 The Death of Ivan Ilyich and Other Stories (Leo Tolstoy, Anthony Briggs, David McDuff etc.) (z-library.sk, 1lib.sk, z-lib.sk).epub is 9b0e2441eb4b52c3ad92adfd0049fbd042e0a88bfdca374e09e42b45d86662ed, and its MD5 is 6ddfb1c2916febea774ae8afab79380c. 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 — The Death of Ivan Ilyich and Other Stories (Leo Tolstoy, Anthony Briggs, David McDuff etc.) (z-library.sk, 1lib.sk, z-lib.sk).epub 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 21, 2026. Because a file's hash never changes, the identity of The Death of Ivan Ilyich and Other Stories (Leo Tolstoy, Anthony Briggs, David McDuff etc.) (z-library.sk, 1lib.sk, z-lib.sk).epub 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.
