Is this a false positive (virus) ? - ilyama - 12-10-2015
Hello guys !
I wanted to download the last version of dolphin 4.0 64 bits and when I click on "download", my anti virus system tells me there is a danger

If I download that on another computer without avira (a macbook in my case), it download without issue.
This is a false positive so ? I made a scan of my computer, I dont have nothing, its a brand new install of win10
Thanks !

That site is not the place to get dolphin anymore, so it very well may give you a virus. Get the latest Dolphin from here: https://dolphin-emu.org/download/
We recommend the latest dev build, as they are faster than the stable 4.0

If Avira dont give me access to the file when I click on "download", It's ok for my computer ?

Did you download it from this site?
RE: Is this a false positive (virus) ? - ilyama - 12-10-2015
No , I dont
But, I also did that
I have a macbook with a bootcamp partition and win10 on it
I downloaded the file on this win10 and I scanned all the files with avira and nothing found by the programm...
So it's a false positive ? How can I be sure of that ? I have a win10 I can do what I want on it so if you have an idea...
I scan it also with virus total, Nothing and the website tells me it has already be scanned 2 years ago..
in fact I download and launch every files on the macbook and I run a lot of scanner, nothing.
For me its a false positive but if you have a better technique to determinate that... I'm all ears
