EnigmaConfigure.exe FP trojan?

Post by Dave78ab »

Hi,


Virustotal says 8 out of 40 scanners are flagging enigmaconfigure.exe as a trojan. I just wanted to know if this was indeed a false positive, and if possible, could anyone explain why it is flagging it as such? I am aware the the scanners that are flagging it are not the best out there, but still, if anyone could confirm and elaborate on why.

if you downloaded Rainmeter from rainmeter.net, there is definitly not a virus in it ;)

though, i am a bit curious, cause we are getting that request very often in the last time. may have to do something with the code of the exe. but i really can assure that it will not harm your pc in any way. ;)

I believe it is something to do wth the compression used when the package was built.

I think it has been fixed ready for the next builds but I am not sure

It is a false positive, caused by a UPX compression routine that AutoIt uses to compress the final .exe files when they are compiled. I have removed compression from RainBrowser, but I think it is still in EnigmaConfigure.exe.

You can ignore it. It's definitely a false positive.
