HJWasm 2.17 is out with false positives

[LiaoMi]

Hallo,

attached picture is from my NOD anti-virus, both versions are blocked //  ::) Release date 01/12/2016
What could it be?

[hutch--]

Test the file on Jotti to see if anything else has the problem.

I can assure you that there is no any kind of malware in those files. Browsers are stupid :(
I hope Johnsa will be able to find solution for that

[habran]

I have downloaded source from GitHub and built it and it runs flawlessly.
If you want I can post both builds here until we find solution for Teraspace builds.

These examples are the problem.

Better just to remove those.

Hi all, it's been a bit of a struggle.. first Google blocked me... then my ISP blocked me... then my hosting provider blocked the site!!

I have now gotten the ISP sorted and hosting provider. I have updated the hjwasm archive on the site to remove all the examples and it has a clean bill of health from virustotal.com
I've alerted Google to this update and am awaiting their security review. Hopefully it should all be back to normal shortly.

Hi LiaoMi,

A lot of antivirus software are nothing more than a pain. They can be useless.

Hi all,

All the security issues have been resolved and the site is back to normal.

Thanks,
John

Actually not surprised. A long time ago there was a program that was supposed to "detect" bad hacker stuff by name,and the list included a hex editor,a dis assembler,and other dos programming tools. The program was kind of like the child safety ones that list "Bad" sites not by actual evidence,but in a manner like how "Harry Potter" books were judged by the religious paranoid types.

Even to if the author has a name that is even sort of looking like another name,or a person reports a site because their sisters boyfriends cousins best friends hookups dealer said they were bad. Grapevine thing.

Hi All,

I know that with the images everything is in order, I wanted to draw attention to the fact, that it is difficult to download files. For example, on another computer, I could not download, even when the antivirus software is disabled, it was the Symantec Antivirus. At that moment I was not able to check all the files separately, so I wrote here ...

A lot of antivirus software are nothing more than a pain. They can be useless.

That's right, just sometimes it saves time  :P

\Win32_8.EXE  Win32:Evo-gen[Susp]

This file is detected in today's build as malicious =)

Hi,
To stop this never-ending fun around false  positives I see one simple and obvious solution  :
distribute your product in source only form without compiled binaries. After all *JWASM is not for beginners 

[TWell]

Only x86 package have those difficulty examples, x64 package is now clean of them.
There are nothing wrong with hjwasm32.exe/hjwasm64.exe.
People need those binaries.

[johnsa]

I will clean the 32bit package and re-upload asap.

That might be a solution for those who have a compiler to build the code. Kind of why I like open source.
