The reasoning behind this verdict

This section explains the evidence supporting the verdict and keeps conflicting or missing signals visible.

90%Confidence
Very high
Reasoning

Zero malicious detections across 60 reporting engines, including 17 tier-1 engines, combined with medium prevalence and a six-year history indicate a benign literary EPUB. The unsigned nature is expected for user-generated EPUBs. No behavioural, network, or external-intel indicators exist to contradict the clean engine consensus.

Analyst conclusion

All 71 engines returned clean results with 17 tier-1 engines explicitly marking it harmless. The file is a 2139-day-old ZIP-formatted EPUB from z-library domains with no sandbox, network, or child-file signals.

Safety FAQ

Common questions about The Death of Ivan Ilyich (Leo Tolstoy) (z-library.sk, 1lib.sk, z-lib.sk).epub, answered from the scan data above.

  • The Death of Ivan Ilyich (Leo Tolstoy) (z-library.sk, 1lib.sk, z-lib.sk).epub appears safe. 71 of 71 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 (Leo Tolstoy) (z-library.sk, 1lib.sk, z-lib.sk).epub is a file, about 162 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 71 antivirus engines we queried report The Death of Ivan Ilyich (Leo Tolstoy) (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 (Leo Tolstoy) (z-library.sk, 1lib.sk, z-lib.sk).epub is e668fc11f10f13a14e02eec6b8a7922abd2584a19c61025d987d1301a35ece1c, and its MD5 is fb93db01103eac463114a44cd838e289. 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 (Leo Tolstoy) (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 22, 2026. Because a file's hash never changes, the identity of The Death of Ivan Ilyich (Leo Tolstoy) (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.
