JDownloader 2 (beta), when analyzed by Kaspersky Security Scanner, has a component which is identified as a Trojan:
HEUR: Trojan-Downloader.Win32.Generic


Could you please address this issue?

this is a toolbar used by JD to dowonload via browser, you can see this thread

http://jdownloader.org/knowledge/wik...ox-integration

If you don't use this addon in your browser don't take care about it, I intalled the toolbar.exe and my AV (eset smart security) only blocked an adress but I get to installed successful, and I used it without problems.

But If you have any doubt you can analyse this file (toolbar.exe) in the web called
virustotal (dot) com

Now I reanalysed the file and this web said that It haven't virus, trojan... etc.

You may also submit the issue to Kaspersky. "Heur" means this is a heuristic match, including a probability of false-positives.

This morning when i was scanning my pc kaspersky showed following virus information
Location:userXXX\appdata\local\jdownloader 2.0\toolbar.exe//WiseSFXDropper
infection:HEUR:Trojan-Downloader.Win32.Generic

Please suggest me what is this "a virus or a false alert." is it safe to delete this file and if deleted would it effect jdownloaders working.

Please help

another user asked the same several days ago.

i remember installing jdownloader and jd installing facemoods crap. for those people think that their antivirus is crap, think again. jdownloader dev doesnt really have any credibility saying antivirus is crap and false positive. the fact is, jd is installing a software thats deem as harmfull by most antivirus(but jd dev kept telling people its false positive). it doesnt matter if its a virus, a malware or just a simple toolbar. the fact is, most people(antivirus included) deem that software as harmfull. so dont ever stop/remove your av for the sake of jd. you will regret if you do. i did(my god how i hate facemoods)

i do understand that dev need money to pay bills etc. but, trust, credibility, quality goes a long way. dont give your middle finger to people who loved you and loved your work.

i do hope jdownloader find other means of making money. it doesnt have to be harmfull.

that said, where can i get portable version of jdownloader 2?
