Original Title: I'm aware that links from the Megathread are supposed to be safe and reliable, but I never got this many flags. Is it just a false positive (nor Google nor Kaspersky flagged it as a virus) or a possible trojan?


I have read in another post that unnamed threats and threats named with the words "gen" and "hack" are generally no problem, and that some antiviruses get paid to flag piracy files as viruses, but I just want to be really sure, so I thought posting this here would be a good idea. I've also read about testing it on a virtual machine (... which I have never done before, but I might try it out if necessary)
