Looking into this. Freshly compiled version on two (clean) computers result in same binary, but still VirusTotal reports infections.

Do we still have a Virus concern here? "Working-on" status since July 23???

[davidvidmar]

I trully don't know. It was a false alarm then, and I could not work around it and gave up. Might try again some day.

You see the code, code is 100% safe. Use at your own risk.

My Firefox download said this is a virus :(

This seems to be resolved.

(Narrator: but it was not.)

When was it resolved?
I have uploaded Crycker.exe to virustotal like 2 hours ago and got the same result as reported. Even the same url.

Sorry, I saw coment from someone with clean sheet from Virustotal and jumped from joy. Will check myself, but there is just so much I can do as this is clearly a false positive and it's really frustrating.

I'm glad to report, that Kasperky has recognized that this is indeed false positive. Still waiting for some other vendors to reponse to my false-positive report.

[davidvidmar]

Another antivirus fixed the false-positive.

Unless it has some adware in it, my guess is that it exhibits some behavior that gets flagged as a cryptominer.

I'm glad to see that Kaspersky no longer flags it. It would help if BitDefender was on board as well. I went ahead and submitted it to them here. I'll report back when I get the results.
