Is Bettersurvival-CurseForge.zip safe?
No antivirus engine detected the ZIP archive, although its very recent appearance and lack of runtime analysis warrant ordinary caution before extraction.
The archive drew no malicious or suspicious detections from 75 antivirus engines, including no tier-1 detections. It is newly observed and was not executed in a sandbox, so obtain it from the expected source and scan extracted files before opening them.

Before opening or extracting
Open or extract it only when its sender or download source has been independently verified.
If you already opened or extracted it
Keep normal device protection enabled and stop if the file behaves unexpectedly.

The reasoning behind this verdict
This section explains the evidence supporting the verdict and keeps conflicting or missing signals visible.
The archive drew no malicious or suspicious detections from 75 antivirus engines, including no tier-1 detections. It is newly observed and was not executed in a sandbox, so obtain it from the expected source and scan extracted files before opening them.
All 75 antivirus engines returned zero malicious and zero suspicious detections, while 14 tier-1 engines reported no detection. Research intelligence produced no MalwareBazaar, CIRCL, or YARAify match. Code-signing evidence is not applicable to a ZIP archive, and no brand mismatch was identified. The file is newly observed with only one submission, which limits the value of reputation history. No completed runtime observation or complete contacted-host reputation result is available, so the contents should still be handled with routine caution.
What We Detected
The ZIP archive received 0 malicious and 0 suspicious detections across 75 antivirus engines. Fourteen tier-1 engines reported no detection, and the available external research checks produced no MalwareBazaar, CIRCL, or YARAify match.
Threat Behavior
No completed sandbox observation is available, so the archive's contents and runtime actions were not observed. A complete contacted-host reputation result is also unavailable. The sample is newly observed and has only one recorded submission, so it lacks an established reputation history.
What To Do Now
Confirm that the archive came from the expected CurseForge project page or another trusted release channel. Keep endpoint protection enabled, scan the extracted contents, and avoid launching unexpected executables, scripts, or installers found inside.
Where this verdict could be wrong4 caveats
- prevalence.classification=rare_new means the archive has essentially no established history.
- behaviour=null, so no completed sandbox run is available to assess files or actions inside the ZIP.
- contactedHosts=null, so no complete host-reputation cross-check is available.
- Eight engines timed out, including Avast, AVG, and BitDefender, leaving some scan coverage incomplete.
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 engines reported a malicious detection
- 0/75 engines reported a suspicious detection
- 14 tier-1 engines reported no detection
- No MalwareBazaar, CIRCL, or YARAify match
- No brand mismatch or adversarial text contamination detected
- Newly observed archive with only one recorded submission
- No completed sandbox execution
- No complete contacted-host reputation cross-check
- Eight engine timeouts reduced coverage for several products
- Archive contents were not independently described in the evidence
Use the archive only if it came from the expected project source. Keep security protection enabled and scan all extracted files before opening or executing them.
