False Virus: Downloader.Zlob.ANW in Windows Vidalia Bundle
Many people have reported their AVG Anti-Virus is finding
Downloader.Zlob.ANW virus in the uninstall.exe of the 0.1.1.20
Vidalia bundle. This bundle is located at
http://www.vidalia-project.net/dist/vidalia-bundle-0.1.1.20-0.0.4.exe
and the signature matches that found in
http://www.vidalia-project.net/dist/vidalia-bundle-0.1.1.20-0.0.4.exe.asc.
It appears only AVG Anti-Virus detects this. The commercial
version of AVG doesn't appear to detect this virus. To the best
of my knowledge, after debugging and decompiling it, it does not
appear to be a virus. It appears to be a false positive. Only
the free version of AVG seems to detect this as a virus thus
far.
If you have information otherwise, feel free to share it here.
Thanks!
