Screenshot Captor / Re: Possible infection in 2.84.01 after unpacking.

I did suspect this was a false detection but when you use a well known site or package to host your forum, hackers are no doubt beavering away looking to exploit sites that haven't kept up with the latest patches and updates- it's happened before, downloads have been infected by third parties. I suppose responsible developers could do with a way to submit potentially awkward files (like these hooks) to the AV companies - I guess there isn't a simple comprehensive way to do that.

Screenshot Captor / Possible infection in 2.84.01 after unpacking.

Malwarebytes signalled an infection in 2 of the DLL's so I uninstalled and that version (2.82.01) and reinstalled the latest version from this website (2.84.01) and uploaded the 2 suspect files to the on-line virus scanner I use:-
http://virusscan.jotti.org/en-GB

It submits files to 20 or so on-line virus scanners - see attached screenshots of the results.

Can someone confirm or rule out these detections. I will try and submit the files themselves to Malwarebytes and to the 2 virus detection companies as I've previously found them quite responsive in terms of accepting that their scanners have made a false detection.

I've just had that problem - exit screenshot and restatrt it and it seems to work okay. However I have a query about a possible infection of the 2 of the DLL's straight from unpacking the latest version - 2.84.01 - I know that certain types of code can bear the same signature and be incorrectly recognized by AV software but I'd like someone to check it out. See seperate thread (for clarity) I'm about to create on this.
