Optralan Mirror Issue for Windows Download Version 0.9.6

Postby JoshC » 07 Dec 2008 14:34

I downloaded from the US Optralan (Windows Download Vers. (0.9.6)) On two different machines in the last 24 Hours. Both machines flagged the file for having a virus. One was using Norton Corporate the other was using AVG. Each was updated in the last 24 hours. When using a different mirror the virus warnings did not show. Can anyone else confirm this?

Well I installed CYgwin so I could compare the checksums but I cannot get the mirror link anymore and have since deleted the original file.

*Edit

OK, I found the link to the Optralan Via Google Cache.

The MD5s do not seem to match other servers. The first is the file that is throwing up a warning.
