FortiGuard quarantining XYPLorer as malware

Post by einzelheinz »

Hi hate to say it, but another Virus-Scanner classifies XYPlorer as malware:

FortiGuard / FortiClient classifies various versions of XYPlorer.exe as W32/VB.RHU!tr.dldr

https://www.fortiguard.com/

I saw in some other similar post that the dev team might contact the virus tool providers and wanted to put this info out. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Best Regards.

Thank you. It's a false positive, of course, and usually goes away on its own within a few hours.
