"unsafe"

[bmartino1]

I am seeing this also with Windows 10 defender and Malwarebytes.

Trojan:Win32/Spallowz.A!cl
Alert level: Severe

i have seen that one too, what i have found is that the hfs file downloaded was form a "ISP cache" site that had a bad version and was corrupted...
(i have worked with Microsoft "live/ defense(defender) /security essential / ms anti spyware) - the up to date official download done't get claimed as a "Trojan / virus / risk-ware / etc....

lorgarth , i would recommend you to try to re download, if have to , will place a google download link like before (https) cant' be sync-seeded via the ssl certs renewal process, so its harder for an ISP to "cache the site.....

the problem / why this topic was started was that AV program are giving a false positive...
I can 100% be sure that there is not a problem with the latest build...

You nailed it right on the spot!...

Don't worry, I personally understand what you write. But this is a problem for those who need to use Google Translator (I'm not referring to Rejetto since he knows English), but there are russians, germans and chinese in this forum who need to use a translator, and they can't get the translation done properly. May be you should use some extension for your browser, that lets you automatically correct any typos fast and easy.

Look here: LanguageTool (for Firefox) & (for Chrome)

Like you say: "I'm only trying to help, I mean, no offense."

The download I pulled was from here, or I thought it was. I will try again and see what I get.

From the link on http://www.rejetto.com/hfs/?f=dl  I get the save from http:rejetto.webfactional.com  I also got a download link from a .cz page. both pages flagged the download as Win32.Spallowz.A!cl infected.

Tried a third time from http://www.melauto.it   same thing flagged.

The file you linked came up clean, both with Malewarebytes and Windows Defender.

Thank you. This happened to some other user in the past, as you can read here. Usually ISP caches files from HTTP links, but not from HTTPS (SSL). This explains why a file hosted on Google Drive (hosted on HTTPS), get download "cleanly" on your side. You can read an explanation on how ISP caches files, here.
