[Solved] Eset warning, v2.9.0 virus?

Post by fxrx »

This is the message I get when I try to install the new version:

qbittorrent_2.9.0_setup.exe » NSIS » qbittorrent.exe - probably a variant of Win32/Hoax.ArchSMS.HU application

I guess it's just Eset's PUP engine. (Potentially Unwanted Program.)

After I recently installed Eset to give it a try, it marked half of my PC as a "potential threat".
While MSE, Avast, Comodo, Bitdefender returns 0 threats.

I confirm this is a false positive. I contacted the ESET and here is their reply:
Thank you for your submission.
It is a false positive of our scanner and this issue will be fixed in our next signature update.

Maybe you should contact Avira as well?

Didn't realize that version was available for Windows platform, thought it was just Linux.
Downloaded fine, thanks!
