Qbittorrent Malware.Heuristic.1003

[zimlo]

Hi, i've been using Qbittorrent and Malwarebytes for a long time.

Qbittorrent 4.3.3 (x64) is installed on my pc. When complete search my pc with lastest version of Malwarebytes Free, i have no warnings or detetections. But if you look Virustotal Qbittorrent 4.3.3 (x64) there is a detection which is "Malware.Heuristic.1003". And same for the lastest version of Qbittorrent 4.3.4.1 (x64)

Thanks for reporting. This should be fixed in 10 mins. It may take longer for virustotal to reflect this.

Thanks for reporting zimlo. Did you manually enable the "expert systems algorithms" option under the Advanced Settings?

If you don't want to manually have to deal with unquarantining FPs you should run in default configuration. I believe there's a button to "restore to defaults".

On the bottom of the General tab it will restore default settings @zimlo

I don't have any false positives on my pc. I just want to point that there is a false positive on VirusTotal.

Our engine format and configuration in VirusTotal is different than our products’ default configuration. In VirusTotal we use a command-line engine with more aggressive detection techniques and heuristics which might detect more than the commercial product. This is the norm with most if not all other antivirus vendors in VirusTotal. Also some of the whitelisting is not possible on virustotal as the nature of just scanning a file there. Its not duplicated as a real world machine.
