Thanks for sharing.

thanks for sharing!

this sounds good! coz everytime bitcomet nd to warm up b4 start downloading...will give a try dunno really true or not!

thx for sharing but....
my nod32 had detect virus after i download..

thanks for the update.

I'm using NOD32 too but clean from virus...

Perhaps you should update your NOD32 and full scan your system.

dont download virus detect on nod32

Seen like it is the NOD32 heuristic scan think that it is a virus...
It is probably false positive.

Try report this to NOD32 and hope they will have new update to avoid this false positive.

But if they certified that it is not false positive, then we have to stick back to previous version

u all mean the download link from the bitcomet website contains virus???! wah...

yeah...even i download from download.com is also the same.

I have upload the BitComet v1.02 installation file to virustotal
and this is the result

thanks

so is that virus "unknown NewHeur_PE virus" harmful? downloaded already scanned with NOD32 also get that msg...haven't install it though...

for this version, after 100% downloaded, certain files extension are still carrying .bc!, so i need to manual hash check. anyone experience the same thing?

No, that is most probably false positive because only NOD32 flag it as malware... and it flag it in the way by "heuristic", thats mean it doesn't have the signature, but just think that the code acting like malware.

If other anti-virus software also flag it as malware, then only we can said it is unsafe...
