Hello!

 

Both my Husband and me play World of Warcraft in our spare time, and use addons, as a measure of security we use Virustotal before installing.

 

This time, on three well known addons we received a detection ratio of 1/55 coming from Webroot, for the same trojan.

False positive or worrying issue ? All addons come from curse.
Hello and Welcome to the Webroot Community!

 

Maybe @ can look into this for you when he comes in today.

Those detections are due to an issue with the Webroot VT scanner, so you can treat them as False Positives. They are not detected by Webroot SecureAnywhere. 

 

Thanks,
