Kaspersky keeps blocking access to casino page coming from qbitorrent

Post by Nolimit »

Hi, this started recently but as the subject says it keeps happening now every time I run qbt.

Any idea what this is about? Using latest version for win, didn't stop happening after updating to it either.

This is quite serious.
Can someone from the qBittorrent team confirm the build and download servers have not been compromised?

lol. that's false positive.
I think one of the IPs you connect to (either swarm, favicon download, whatever) simply "resolves" to that domain, which is blocked in your security software. This does not mean qBittorrent is trying to play blackjack with your hard-earned savings, it just means the IP you connect to, is also used for something else.

You are completely safe.

If you'd like further "debugging", you can contact me in private message and send me your list of torrents, etc. I know, this is 'private information' but without knowing what you run exactly, I can't really tell more.
