How long does it take for SUMo to recognize a new version of software is out there ?

It's pretty quick, usually faster than the program itself, some really dislike Sumo but in my opinion its the best software updater there is. From time to time it picks a Beta up as final but not often & it's easy to let them know. It's not for everyone but is for me :)

I take a look at virustotal, and seems that in the last month a big number of versions of SUMo not authorized by the developer were highly flagged as malicious trojan horse; such versions are unofficial portables versions of SUMo, if I am right the only official version is offered by his site or portableapps.com

Antivirus scan for 773b7a70435e6344b46c27a26d27a24005e8b40a6ba4fd7e68dcff8b209a0ffa at 2018-08-28 00:23:54 UTC - VirusTotal

I feeled to report because one of those is flagged 40/70, and is not surely a good thing to see

www.kc-softwares.com domain information - VirusTotal

Seems to me those portable versions were made with TurboStudio...

There is also the question of the bundle, this not sounds good either, 61/68 Antivirus scan for 36014840c5deb1678c0d90c267ab82e8e480999ce5465d383818a85d5b7dc7ad at 2018-08-11 08:26:18 UTC - VirusTotal

Highly malicious bundle associated with the name of the product doesn't high the security perception around the product...

SUMO is basically trialware that only works if you pay for it. Either buy it or move along.
