Is gmod_preset_to_collection-main.zip safe?
No antivirus engine detected the ZIP archive, and independent threat-intelligence checks found no known family or research-rule match, though it is newly observed.
The archive produced 0 detections across 75 antivirus engines, including no alerts from 17 reporting tier-1 engines. No external threat-intelligence match was found, but the file is newly observed and lacks completed runtime analysis, so standard caution remains appropriate.

The reasoning behind this verdict
This section explains the evidence supporting the verdict and keeps conflicting or missing signals visible.
The archive produced 0 detections across 75 antivirus engines, including no alerts from 17 reporting tier-1 engines. No external threat-intelligence match was found, but the file is newly observed and lacks completed runtime analysis, so standard caution remains appropriate.
Static scanning produced no malicious or suspicious detections among 75 antivirus engines, with all 17 reporting tier-1 engines silent. Coverage was adequate because 66 engines reported results. MalwareBazaar, CIRCL, and YARAify supplied no corroborating threat match. The archive is newly observed with only one submission, which reduces historical assurance. No sandbox run completed, and no comprehensive contacted-host reputation result is available. Prior ZIP verdicts were favorable but matched only by file type, so they carry little weight.
What We Detected
The ZIP archive received 0 malicious and 0 suspicious detections across 75 antivirus engines. Seventeen reporting tier-1 engines, including Microsoft, Kaspersky, BitDefender, ESET-NOD32, and Avast, did not flag it. MalwareBazaar, CIRCL, and YARAify also returned no matching threat intelligence or research rules.
Threat Behavior
No completed sandbox observation is available, so runtime actions cannot be assessed. The contacted-host cross-check was not completed or saved, meaning no comprehensive network-reputation conclusion can be drawn. The archive is newly observed and has only one recorded submission.
What To Do Now
Keep endpoint protection enabled and extract the archive only if it came from the expected repository or sender. Review the extracted files before running scripts or executables, especially because the archive lacks established history and runtime evidence.
Where this verdict could be wrong3 caveats
- prevalence.classification=rare_new and file.ageDays=0 mean the archive has almost no established history.
- behaviour=null, so no runtime execution was observed; contactedHosts=null also means no complete host-reputation cross-check is available.
- The five similarHashes entries are matchKind=filetype only, so they are weak comparisons rather than close content matches.
These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.
- 0/75 antivirus engines flagged the archive
- 17 reporting tier-1 engines produced no detection
- 66 engines reported, providing adequate scan coverage
- MalwareBazaar, CIRCL, and YARAify returned no hits
- No brand mismatch or adversarial-input indicators were detected
- Newly observed archive with one recorded submission
- No completed sandbox observation
- No comprehensive contacted-host reputation result
- No established publisher or hash history
- Similar-file evidence is based only on ZIP file type
Keep endpoint protection enabled and use the archive only if its source is expected. Inspect extracted contents before executing any scripts, binaries, or shortcuts.
