I tried again and Defender identified & quarantined 4 Trojans from Harqules ... it also deleted the 64 & 32 bit VST2 files, but not the VST3. Something is very wrong. This has never happened before on my 5 year old PC.

If it was a false positive, then all my previous downloads from my account of purchased plugins would also have these false positives. They do not.

The current free offerings have the trojans, not the purchased versions.

WTF? He's distributing infected files, whether he knows it or not, and asking for funds via Patreon. He should listen to what's being said here and either fix or remove the downloads. I was planning to do some music today, but instead I'm running a full system scan looking for malware.

It's also very weird that only the 32 bit files got infected, why not the other ones?

Post

It could be completely accidental if his own computer, where he has packed the ZIP files, was infected. No idea what has happened or why. I'm just putting it out there that the files I've downloaded previously, as a customer from my account, do NOT trigger any antivirus software at all.

As for 32bit files.. I have no idea. People who use 32bit plugins usually run much older systems which are way more vulnerable. Perhaps these trojans target specifically these types of files as they provide better return on investment? No idea.. just speculating here.

WTF, firstly anti-virus programs are known to report false positives for certain code.
but, more to the point, I'm talking about the general situation he's in. Already suffering and then this happens. Poor dude.
anyways, this IS the internet, so no surprise... i'm unrolling the jump to conclusions mat now, anyone up for a game?

Sorry for this situation.

Just sent ticket to my service provider to understand what's going on.

Cause, i didn't do anything new. No new uploads or not newly installed plugins for website.

I just changed download links on website, quickly. Not special process...

Also, my download links are protected, too.

Will share reply from my service provider.

Sorry...

No jumping to conclusions going on here. I had 4 Trojans identified and quarenteened. I double checked and got the same result so reported it here. It looks like its not just me .

So his site shows insecure, possibly, with the high demand of free bees that someone took advantage of situation?

it's a shit situation, but we don't KNOW for a fact what's happened.
I've had plugins quarantined on Windows before too, a few times, but every time it's turned out to be false positive.
would be perfectly acceptable for me to join the pack and take strips off the guy, but i post a few words of sympathy and I'M the enemy ?

I don't know why you think you are the enemy, and I for one have not torn strip of "the guy" ... I think you need to chill out.
