Read the whole reasonShow less

Why Suspicious? 4 antivirus engines flag it, but no major engine agrees; nothing else confirms it.

Limited evidence · One sign points to a problem; nothing else confirms it.

Don't open or extract it until you know where it came from

If it came from a link, an attachment or a stranger, delete it.

What to do now4 steps

Some signs point to a problem, but nothing confirms it is harmful. Treat it with caution.

What to do

  1. Don't open or extract it unless you're sure where it came from.

  2. Check where you got it: an unexpected attachment, a link someone sent you or a re-upload is a red flag.

  3. If you can't confirm where it came from, delete it. If you need the program, download it again from the publisher's own website.

If you already opened or extracted it

  1. Stop using it, run a full scan with your antivirus and watch for unexpected behavior or security alerts.
