[QUOTE="Nightwalker, post: 714464, member: 23015"] Not necessarily, some antivirus vendors just use the nomenclature "generic" for "everything". And anyway, why this file is suspicious? It doesnt do anything at all! What about those detections below, are they generic? Should a executable file that just shows a Skull be considered a Trojan? If they arent just adding signatures because of VirusTotal reputation they really have bad heuristics and a potencial dangerous false positive prone engine. [/QUOTE]
