virustotal 1/72 detection #112
Comments
Yeah I got two red flags actually: I don't think Stefan would've included anything nefarious (someone would've noticed it in the source by now lol) but I am concerned it's such an old program at this point, and hooks into the computer/kernel at such a deep level, it might inadvertantly open up attack vectors from something else........ I did notice recently in Task Manager that Altdrag was the only program running that had Data Execution Prevention "disabled". Not sure how much of a concern that should or shouldn't be but for me it was enough to stop using it. Only because though, I'm working on my own replacement in AutoHotKey. I've been polishing it and I think it works pretty well for most of the old AltDrag functionality, and it ended up being surprisingly simple to implement, check it out: |
As I said in my issue I agree with you and I believe it is false positive. And Thanks, I'll look into that AHK. |
Antivirus programs don't just run off of definitions these days. They look for potential bad behaviour. That's why things like exceptions exist. |

There is an old mention about this issue here. I think it is false positive and I believe this virustotal issue needs to be resolved.
