VirusTotal said it has a virus

DrWeb    Trojan.MulDrop18.40050

Why? An anti-virus program should be able to pass VirusTotal.

  Hello John,

  Well, indeed, it's curious if an antivirus installation kit is detected as an infection. Be sure, our kits are free of any malicious content and clean for sure. It seems that this detection is a false-positive one and you can ignore these results of Virustotal in that case.

  Best,
