Sorry if this is in the wrong place! Mods please move it to the right one, if so. I panicked, but my computer shows no signs of infection, so.....
Is this a false positive? Virustotal identified a trojan in Potplayer, which I just downloaded: Tencent .......... Win32.Trojan.Falsesign.Agbi .......... 20170829
My computer shows no signs of infection, and I can't find anything on the internet about Potplayer being dangerous. I downloaded it from the official, fully secure site, Softonic, which claimed it had been scanned and found safe.
I've heard false positives are common with media/music. I had the same problem yesterday with VLC, which I promptly uninstalled after Virustotal showed a trojan and a malware file, but deep scans with both my AV and Malwarebytes showed a clean system except for two PUAs apparently from Amazon. And still my computer showed no signs of infection, so I'm thinking maybe the VLC was actually clean, too.
I'm not tech-savvy at all, though, so I'd really appreciate some help with this...should I let it go and hope for the best, or do I need to uninstall Potplayer and try yet another media player?
Thanks in advance for any advice.
If this helps:
