Hello,

I just installed Chameleon, a music app in my Windows 10 machine. I then went twice to www.Virustotal.com and 6 of 133 sites found six different viruses in the files. Yes, I should have checked before I installed!
CMC: backdoor.Win32!O
MaxSecure: Trojan-Ransom.Win32.Crymod.zfq
Cylance: Unsafe
Cybereason: malicious.501ae8
eGambit: unsafe.AI_score_98%
Qihoo360: HEUR/QVM05.1.7A33

I then had Vipre Advanced Security check my C drive and found nothing.

What would you do?

It's quite possible you got false positive readings.
Contact the developer of the app maybe?

Thanks for for your reply.
I had other applications for the same developer and they were clean.
Yes it could be a false positive reading.
This is what the developer will likely say.
I will wait for others to chime in and then possibly contact the developer.

Why I am suspecting is that I have checked ten other installation files and they are clean.
Could it be that this particular plugin does something special with Windows making it look like it has a virus?

How should we know?
Ask the developer or the scanner...

Nb I tried to find your Chameleon app, but it's pretty obscure. Not found. No idea what it does.

I apologize.
I am asking for help and then not provide a link

Software pretending to be a USB device. That's a recipe for a key logger. I'm not surprised heuristical scanners see it as potentially malicious.

99,99% a false positive. The scanners which have been positive are not really the crème de la crème either. But, as BertKoor suggested, best to ask the developer. I'd say it's pretty safe to say that it isn't malicious though.
