USBLockit.exe false positive detection

[USBLockit]

Dear staff Malwarebytes,

USBLockit.exe is a free portable software that allows you to password protect USB pendrives, is 100% clean and safe, No Adware, No Spyware.

VirusTotal.com detects it as "Malware.Heuristic.1003" from your engine.

NOTE: that the .exe file was compressed with UPX 3.91w to reduce the size of the executable because it resides in the first 32 sectors of the USB drive to be password protected, this is a portable App an runs directly from the USB drive, don't require installation. This can generate a FALSE detection.

Please can you check it and stop this wrong detection ?

Thanks for advance !

The engine format and configuration in VirusTotal is different than the consumer and corporate products’ default configuration. In VirusTotal Malwarebytes uses a command-line engine with different configuration and detection techniques/heuristics which might detect more than the commercial product. There are also false-positive suppression mechanisms in the commercial product which are not present in the command-line engine in VirusTotal.

It is not detected by the consumer or commercial versions of Malwarebytes.

This will resolve itself in Virustotal  after a while. Virus Total is having issues syncing with the cloud server.
